IN ADDITION TO BEING A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL FRAMER, CHERYL IS AN ARTIST. WORKING UNDER THE NAME CEEBS, SHE IS A PROLIFIC ARTIST, AS EVIDENCED BY SOME OF THE EXAMPLES BELOW. CEEBS ALSO DOES COMMISSION WORK, SO KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN YOU HAVE AN IMPORTANT OCCASION OR PERSON OR PET THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO HONOR.
IN MY ART, I WANT TO SHOW THE COMPLEXITIES OF SHAPES, COLORS, TEXTURES, AND LIGHTS AND DARKS. I WANT TO POINT OUT ORDINARY LITTLE SCENES AND MAKE THEM EXTRAORDINARY. I WANT TO CAPTURE THE LIGHT AND HOLD IT IN TIME AND SPACE. ALL OF THIS COMES OUT IN DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES AND MEDIUMS.
My first love was drawing in graphite and later pastels. This gave me a realistic foundation and a love of detail. I loathe stagnation though and my art continues to change over time. Today my body of work is very diverse. It runs the gamut from realistic to abstract paintings and drawings to fiber art as well as mixed media. I also have a great love of black and white photography and enjoy the alchemy of development.
I have feared over the years being a jack of all trades, so to speak, and a master of none in the field of art. But there is a strong desire in me to work with many forms of art and I have long ago decided to give in to this impulse and for better or worse it is how I work. This gives me the freedom I want to express myself in many many ways and this is a joy.
