“We get compliments on the backsplash all the time. People love that it’s
different and that it’s custom-made. Even my kids even appreciate it, which
I think says a lot that they pay attention to things like that.”

The Birthday celebration was a success. Dan was totally surprised and loved the piece! It seems the more he studies it, the more he discovers and the more he appreciates its complexity. It was a pleasure getting to know you and I’m sure we will pass through your gallery again.
Thanks again!

In addition to her wonderful artistic skills, Sheryl has excellent interpersonal relations and an ability to fully understand the mission of the organization she is working for. This combination made the entire experience memorable. Those of us who worked with her also grew in our appreciation of art.

In 2004 I had created Along For The Ride, a sculpture for the Fairview Children’s Hospital. Recently they asked me to create a podium for him. Here are the pictures of the process! Hope you enjoy!
Along For The Ride Sculpture
Along for the Ride - created 2004 for Fairview Children\'s Hospital. The turtle\'s shell is covered with travel plates. I had written a story to go with it that is finally getting told - mounted on the pedestal they asked me to make now.

This was created for a home in Florida. I had just returned from a trip there so felt very inspired – I call it my Florida Keys table. The turquoise agates look gorgeous.
