Born in Sacramento, California to artisan parents she began working with textiles very early. Sherri continued sewing and designing through college, and  graduated with an Arts Degree in Theater from the University of Georgia. Love of lighting, fabrics and color led eventually to an Interior Design career. In 2000 jewelry making became an artistic outlet, and by 2009 a primary focus. Media includes metal, clay, fabric, semi precious stones, glass, crystals and other organic materials.

Sherri’s work is always inspired from places, cultures, other works of art, dance, literature, architecture, and theater. Favorite inspirations are fashion of the 30’s, and 40’s and the stained glass work of artists such as Louis Tiffany. A frequent theme is manipulating hard media to appear soft and flowing. With bold bright colors, and lots of movement, the work is not shy.

“I enjoy creating drama and whimsy, in order to make the wearer stand out in a crowd”

Sherri also works with a local fashion designer, and has appeared in various art galleries in Orange County and LA.
