Sheryl Fisher

VISUAL ARTIST

Fisher studied art in college, and has continued her education through several workshops over the years. She has been juried into several exhibitions and has received several awards. Her art practice is busy, as she is an active member with the Federation of Canadian Artists, participating in various exhibitions and artist studio tours, and serving her community through donations of art to fundraisers for local organizations.

Sheryl Fisher’s abstract paintings entice you to come in, sit for awhile, have a cup of tea, and contemplate. From a distance, they are engaging in their composition and design, and demand attention with their strong contrasts and bold patterns. However, it’s the quieter shadowy shapes, text, textures, bits and pieces peeking through sanded down or cut out areas that persuade you to take a closer look. There is a story, sometimes obvious, sometimes ambiguous, that is told through the layers of papers, paint, and marks made with various tools. It’s up to the viewer to interpret it with their own imagination, which plays a part in being her invited guest.

Sheryl Fisher’s work is on permanent display at the gallery. To see more of her work, please visit our online SHOP.
