Cheryl paints at her home in Grass Valley, California. She prefers oil on canvas, and her favorite subjects are people and animals. She spent many years in public education, and after a long time in the classroom teaching others, she began to study and teach herself art. Now she spends her days in her studio and is very grateful for the gift of being able to spend so much of her time painting.

She says, “I see beauty in the everyday common objects and scenes I find in nature, in my home, and as I drive along the highway. The results are usually images that are peaceful and intimate.”
