Sherry Shipley
Growing up in the shadow of the Cascades, the beauty of the Pacific Northwest inspired a love of nature and wildlife. Trips to the mountains supply a stunning and endless backdrop for her wildlife subjects which Sherry has been painting for close to 50 years.
While raising a family as a single parent she attended the Art Institute of Seattle where she graduated with honors with a degree in Visual Communications. She went on to produce art for magazines, newspapers and television, but her background in the fine arts and her desire to paint wildlife called her back to doing what she has always loved.
Her work has been seen in galleries from Seattle to New York. Her original artwork is selling nationally as well as to many countries across the globe. Her designs are currently licensed to sell in Canada and overseas.
Presently Sherry lives with her husband Stan and their multiple cats in Mount Vernon Wa.
