Recent Colored Pencil Works by Woodbridge Artist Sherry Smith

Sherry Smith describes her most recent works as not being about the subject matter as much as they are about her emotional response to color and pattern and light and dark. “Bright colors and shapes lift my spirits and bring me a sense of joy!" she explains. "I haunt flea markets and thrift stores to collect reflective objects to highlight the yards and yards of brightly patterned fabrics that are the inspiration for my still life works.”

Smith shows her work at The Loft Gallery (www.theloftgallery.org) and the Workhouse Arts Center (www.workhousearts.org) and on her personal website (www.sherrysmithart.com). One of her pieces recently appeared on the cover of CP, a magazine for colored pencil artists.
