Artist Statement:
What I see inspires my work.
Images ranging from public
domain icons to archaic glyphs
fascinate me. With high
voltage colors I search for a
visual language of universal
archetypes. The creation and
deconstruction of this
language occurs through the
physical act of painting. In
my recent work, color,
texture, and layering become
the psychology of expression.
Fauvism, Expressionism,
Abstract Expressionism, and
Carl Jung influence me.
Specific influences are Edvard
Munch, James Ensor, Georges
Rouault, Rainer Fetting, the
COBRA painters and Jean-Michel
Basquiat.

Cheryl, Your work has really come along. I like the cohesive aspects in your maturing body of art. China Doll, el corazon que camina, Double Blind, el pollo de la cabeza, White Elephant, and Burning Ring of Fire really rock my boat!!! Keep on flying...

Hi Cheryl...I am taking time to look at your website and a link brought me here....In taking time to really look at your creations (which I don't do in print class), I am very impressed with the worlds and creatures you create with whimsy & humor. Your mastery of color & transparency has my admiration & envy! One day I hope you'll be able to add my name to the list of patrons who own one of your masterpieces!!
