Sheri's passion, from the age of four, has always been art. At 12 she began working with Ted Fogel, impasto master, in the style of the Renaissance artists. By age 14 she shocked her teacher with a replica of Sir Thomas Lawrence's Calmady Children, a masterpiece that resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
In March 2005 Sheri painted a mural onsite at the New York City Art Expo, and was discovered by Audrey Roberts, founder of ARTV. Sheri is one of three artists in the United States that has been nominated for an award for her Fine Art Murals. She painted live at the West Coast Premier of the ARTV Awards in Hollywood, California July 14, 2005. The awards ceremony was the first ever Academy Award-style, red carpet event , filmed and produced by the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, NV October 28, 2005. The ARTV Awards are a sanctioned event coinciding with Las Vegas' Centennial and will be aired on National Television.
Sheri has submitted her painting Angels to the Smithsonian's Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition 2006. She was a guest on Good Day New York, Across the Hudson, and Dorothy Dunne's Lifestyle Program, and her work has been seen in several trade magazines. North Light Publishing commissioned a future book on her techniques, and she is a member of the many organizations including the Art Renewal Center. Later this year Sheri joins Royal Caribbean Lines as an Expert Speaker.
