Cheri Christensen Animal Paintings

b. 1961

Cheri Christensen was born in Enumclaw, Washington, a small rural town of horse, dairy and cattle ranches at the foot of Mt. Rainer. She attended the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and graduated with a BA from the University of Washington. Christensen studied oil painting and drawing intensely for three years with Ron Lukas, a protégé of Sergei Bongart, who taught in the tradition of Russian Impressionism. Christensen concentrates on seeing and conveying the effects of color and light on form. The first painting Chistensen submitted to a competition was included in a prestigious exhibition at the Charles Emma Frye Art Museum in Seattle and the first painting to include farm animals received the Beatrice Jackson Memorial award for Best Traditional Landscape in the Allied Artists of America 1995 show. She currently lives in Texas.
