Cherie's Studio Visit

Thank you so much, Cherie for letting us in on your beautiful world of insects, birds, fruits, candies and ideas. We are sorry to have missed a few of you (Zelda, Tom and Kate, I believe were the only ones absent).
Cherie walked us through her vision of her project that resides in her mind and will hopefully be ignited to bust out into the real world very soon. I love your idea of using the insect display case, but on a larger scale. Part natural History Museum, part Joseph Cornell and very dream-like.
Cherie displayed her illustration work through the course of her career, showing finished product as well as originals. Such beautiful craftsmanship. Incredible precision and eye for detail.
It was lovely for us to be together. John, you were a charming and restrained host, truly allowing Cherie to have the spotlight.
We were all excited with your proposal. I hope that the Salon helped you with direction and motivation!
