Glass Enamel Artist
Although she has been creating with glass since 1990, in 2006 Cheryl joined her local artist’s network. This sparked an interest in painting, and more specifically, painting on glass. Cheryl has developed an unique process and style of reverse glass painting.
Cheryl employs techniques of traditional glass painting such as the “grisaille” technique of creating shadowing and texture with black enamel and combines it with opaque high fire glass enamels for color. She starts by creating drawings that are imbued with a bit of whimsy and then begins the painting and firing process, which can take as many as six turns in the kiln to produce the final piece.
She enjoys creating pieces of art that are colorful with a splash of whimsy. Cheryl currently divides her time between painting, spending time with her animals and husband, local traveling and sight-seeing.
