Collection: Sherry Cobb-Kelleher
Colorado-based painter Sherry Cobb-Kelleher creates paintings showing moments of time from the western lifestyle she lives, working primarily in oil currently with secondary mediums of pencil and watercolor. Her work explores themes of the true western lifestyle, including ranching and everything that goes with it. Her subjects are animals and people as well as the environment that surrounds them daily. She continually seeks out the moments that tell stories of the animals and people that inspire her.
Growing up on a farm and ranch in Southwestern Colorado gave Sherry the intimate knowledge of her subject that continues to surround her today on the ranch where her studio has been for 25 years. By combining a mastery of light with a strong foundation of drawing and composition, she has developed a unique style to bring to life the details of the world she loves.
Sherry’s work has received the Directors Choice Award and the Parton’s Award at the 2019 “Cowgirl Up!” Exhibition & Sale, along with the Patron’s Choice Award in 2022 and “Best Associate Award” at the WAOW 52nd National Exhibition 2022 for her painting titled “ Evening On Buttermilk Creek”. Her most recent award was in March of this year when she was chosen as “The Artist of The Year” with the new women’s artist group “Cowgirl Artists of America.”
