I jump in with both feet, and have been called fearless by my contemporaries because of a tendency to paint fast and with great enthusiasm. Each painting is a journey, a challenge, and a wonder. Painting is my passion!

Sherry was this year’s winner of the national art label design competition hosted by The Capital Grille in conjunction with Share Our Strength. The Capital Grille has raised more than a million dollars to fight childhood hunger.

The winning art, “Golden Moments”, was chosen for it’s layered colors that emulate the complex flavors of the Arrowood Cabernet Sauvignon. The limited edition wine will have the unique piece of original artwork by Sherry as its label while it supports Share Our Strength. For each bottle of wine sold, The Capital Grille will donate $25.00 to Share Our Strength.
