Her career spans a broad range of environments including manufacturing, government contractor, small business, and nonprofit organizations. Cheryl has volunteered with The Animal Welfare Society, visited a residential facility for Alzheimer’s patients with her dog for the “Pets on Wheels” program, and served as an On-Call Outreach volunteer with the Sexual Assault Service. Cheryl is a graduate of the photography program at the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies (Portland, ME). She earned a bachelor of arts (summa cum laude) in Journalism & Communications from Point Park College (Pittsburgh, PA). Originally from Pennsylvania, Cheryl lived in the Washington, DC area for 15 years prior to relocating to the Maine coast. ARTIST STATEMENT I am a photographer, poet, and storyteller. I use my camera to paint with light and my pen to paint with words. Still photography is my chosen medium to create art exploring the underlying impermanence of life and many moods of motion. Key elements of my visual style are vibrant colors, distinct textures, and movement. |
