Cheri Reckers

About

Cheri Reckers graduated with honors from the Columbus College of Art & Design. She is a multi-media artist and Master Silk Painter. Her award-winning paintings have been exhibited in galleries and museums nationally and internationally as far away as Japan and New Zealand. Her work has appeared in numerous publications and is in public and private collections worldwide. Cheri’s most recent work focuses on her fascination with the seasonal rhythms and colorful textural patterns of the plants, animals, and wide luminescent skies of the Sonoran desert surrounding her home in the San Tan Mountains. “Nature provides me with endless inspiration for paintings and sculptures. Every morning when I walk through the desert (my morning meditation), I “see” a new artwork. I’m always eager to get back to my studio, to interpret and share my experiences through my art. Whether producing silk paintings, steel sculptures or mosaics, I like to have fun with lively linework, repetitive shapes and bold colors to create a bit of "sophisticated whimsy".
