In January of 1989, Sherry began
taking watercolor classes at Eastern Illinois University in
Charleston, IL at the Tarble Arts Center. Additionally, she
has taken workshops with well known watercolorists Henry Bell,
Joseph Fettingis, Maggie McClellen, and many others. Sherry
exhibited in the Kentucky Watercolor Society National Juried Aqueous
USA Show in 1997, 1998, and 2000.
She grew up in Salem, Missouri
where her father raised some American Saddle Bred horses.
Sherry loves paintings horses as their beautiful, magnificent heads,
as well as their shapes and curves inspire her.
In 1995, Sherry
made a trip to Lexington, Kentucky to the Horse Park for
inspiration. There, she fell in love with Egyptian Arabian
horses. Sherry has been a commercial exhibitor at the Egyptian Event since
1997. Sherry's work can be found in private collections in the
US and the Middle East, as well as in corporate collections in the
US. Future plans for Sherry include working on a painting that will
appear as the cover art for a book being written by Tom McNair and a
donation to the Art Auction at the 2005 Egyptian Event.
