CherilynnFineArt offers beautiful watercolor paintings

CherilynnFineArt , of Chicago, Illinois, opened on ArtFire 3-14-09.  She says "I have been painting in watercolor for almost fifteen years and love the process. I enjoy the fluidity and spontaneous qualities of watercolor and the contrast of control within the medium. My subject matters have changed over the years but for the past five years, I have settled into painting animals. I enjoy spending the time exploring their characters.

I studied painting and photography at Milwaukee Insitute of Art and Design."  I really enjoy all of her animal paintings.  She really captures their personalities, and the unique qualities of each animal.  She's also won a wide variety of awards for her artwork.  You can find her online at http://www.cherilynnfineart.com, http://www.cherilynnfineart.blogspot.com, http://www.facebook.com/Cherilynnfineart..., and http://www.twitter.com/CherFineArt.

Below is a sample of her wonderful artwork.  Wouldn't you just love her to paint your pet's portrait?

Just beautiful!

I love a challenge, so if you have any ideas for me, just contact me, you are never under any obligation to purchase."
