I’m a Wife, Mother, Art Teacher, Artist, and Photographer serving the Chicago land area. Throughout my life I’ve felt great satisfaction in creating using a variety of artistic mediums. I've been making art and experimenting creatively since I was a child. While many moments and masterful artists have inspired me most of my creative influences are found right in my family.
Recently painting and photography have been my most passionate endeavors. As a painter, my aspirations are to continue to create works that reflect personal revelations, evoke, inspire and connect to others around the world. As a photographer, I enjoy capturing and preserving important and every day moments that reflects persona, emotions, and the important times and places that connect us in our lives.
Many thanks for commenting and visiting my page,

Digital Agent says:
"Where to start, perhaps by stating that Cheryl is one of my favorite contacts, she has been for several months now and for that I am proud.
Cheryl has such talent, not just with a camera but with charcoal, brush and paint. Often Cheryl inserts a video into her stream that once viewed confirms her creativity goes well beyond still photography and the canvas.
Cheryl is a true artist with vision, don't take my word, take a look for yourself. You will be amazed at the depth to which Cheryl exhibits through her images, and her paintings, and as she takes the viewer on that magical journey you can't help but be impressed and inspired by the talent this young artist has.
Cheryl, I am proud to have you as a good flickr friend, sincerely!!!"27th July, 2008

"I am so honored to be the first to write a testimonial for Cheryl and it will not surprise me if this small token of appreciation gets buried under everyone else's testimony for her in the near future.
There are so many wonderful things to say about Cheryl that I have no idea where to begin. Her dedication as a daughter, a wife, and a teacher makes her one of the most loving people I have ever met.
Looking through her stream, one can sense the sweetness that lies beneath the layers upon layers of creativity. Besides being amazingly gifted with wisdom, she's got some mad painting skills! I am so glad you have finally joined flickr Cheryl!!! and as you continue that path and journey to creativity whether with brushes or with a camera, I want you to know that I'm proud to call you friend and that I'm honored to follow your growth every step of the way.
Hugs and kisses,
samantha"13th May, 2008
