Sherrie Nielsen
Sherrie Nielsen is a realist artist with a passion for animals and nature working in California. She especially enjoys creating art that explores the lives and characters of animals in situations that are most often realistic, and, at times, imagined or allegorical. Her style reflects her strong interest in drawing. Nielsen predominately works in oil with an occasional joyful diversion into drawing in charcoal or colored pencils.
She has learned through extensive contact with animals of many species that each is a distinct individual, even though they fit within the universal characteristics of their species. She wants her viewers to see each animal she portrays as that distinct individual. Her desire in a finished work is for the observer to feel the moment and the animals' responses to that moment as a window into the workings of their immortal souls.
Nielsen is an Associate Member with Distinction of American Women Artists; and an Associate member of Women Artists of the West and Oil Painters of America.
