Cherie says she is a small town girl who loves good guitar music, classic rock, singing and playing her guitar, riding her motorcycle, visiting her son and two grandsons in Arizona and art, ART, ART!!!
Cherie’s first 'crafty type' projects were sculpting and painting on clay. She also carved rubber stamps, embossed copper plates, learned macramé and made paper mosaics and collages. In high school Cherie started sewing. Then she started painting anything she could get her hands on. Once she discovered the computer, a whole new world of digital art was opened for her.
Cherie is inspired by the beauty that surrounds her.
Cherie is an artist who works with whatever medium she is in the mood for that day! She enjoys creating art in many forms, from digital art collage sheets, digital clip art and digital scrapbook pages to hand painted gourds, baskets, beaded jewellery, paper mache, felting and everything in between.
Cherie especially loves creating ACEOs...they are Art Cards, Editions & Originals. There is quite a growing number of artists and art collectors who see that these wonderful 'small format' works of art are fabulous collectibles! They are in the standard trading card size of 2.5" x 3.5" (just like baseball cards) and can be purchased in as many art forms as you can imagine. Altered, sketched, 3-D, photographs, digital art, fabric, mechanical, beaded, pencil, ink, acrylic, oil...the list is endless. As long as they are the standard size, they are considered ACEOs.
Besides original ACEO art cards for sale in Cherie’s ETSY shop you will also find a great collection of digital art that you can purchase and then receive through your email system. These fun and unique clip-art sheets are great for digital scrapbooking, journaling, scrabble tile pendants, altered art, ACEOs, greeting cards, stickers, postcards...whatever you can dream up!
Currently Cherie is designing for various POD (Print On Demand) sites such as Zazzle, RedBubble, Greeting Card Universe and more.
Cherie enjoys meeting fun 'creatives' online at Twitter and FaceBook. You can join her at many of the online art groups that she is proud to be a member of like Mixed Media Workshops and Magical Holiday Artists.
