Artist Statement

ARTIST STATEMENT
Cheryl D. Edwards was born in Miami Beach, Florida. She began her studies in art during 1988 in New York City in a class at the Art Student League taught by Ernest Crichlow. She has been living in Washington, DC for the past 17 years. Cheryl has exhibited in Washington, DC, Miami, New York, Maryland, Virginia and Hong Kong.

Her interest in art stems from her fascination of the human body as a whole. Her medium is oil, ink and acrylics.  Art allows me to travel into all realms of possibility. As I look at my life, I have found that I have always chosen ART...  Please contact her for viewings and/or visit her website: Cheryl-edwards.artistwebsites.com

The title of this piece is called "Beyond the Nile" I sent you two messages I'm not sure which one got through, nonetheless, thanks again for the comment on my painting at David Driskell.

Hello Cheryl

You may not remember me, I am also one of the artist that was in the show "Sacred Reflections"  I'm glad you took pictures,  I viewed your piece which I thought was exciting and the colors vibriant.  My piece in the show is entitled " Beyond the Nile"  It was truly a wonderful event.

Hello Cheryl, thanks for the Friend Request! Your work is powerfully haunting with a nice dreamy feel. I'm looking forward to watching your "Meet Painter" Video. Warm Wishes.
