About Sherry 

Raised in a creative family of sculptors, painters and musicians I have been deeply involved with art since early childhood. Art remains an intrinsic and vital part of my life.

I am a graduate of the State University of NY at New Paltz where I received my B.S. in art education. I have extensive training in oils and pastels having studied art and art history both here and abroad in Rome, Florence and Urbino Italy.

I have been painting in soft pastels for over 10 years. It's my medium of choice.  I love the color, feel and application of the soft pastels.

My work is an impressionistic / realism mix. This style of painting I call artistic realism. Subjects vary from pet portraits to still life and landscape studies.

I paint my life, what's in it and what's around me.
