Sherry Karver Art

American
Sherry Karver is "not a 'traditional' artist, and am always looking for new approaches to the materials I use to expand their possibilities. My work pushes the parameters of photography, painting, narrative text, and resin surface by blending them to create a new hybrid. Most recently I have also incorporated jigsaw puzzles into my work." She received my B.A. in Sociology from Indiana University in Bloomington, IN and her M.F.A. in ceramics from the Newcomb School of Art at Tulane University in New Orleans, LA. Her artwork has evolved from creating ceramic wall sculpture into the photo-based mixed media painting. Her work has been featured in over twenty-five solo exhibitions including the Sasse Museum of Art in Pomona, CA, the Oceanside Museum of Art, Oceanside, CA, The Morris Graves Museum, Eureka, CA, the Santa Cruz Museum of Art in Santa Cruz, CA, and the Peninsula Museum of Art, Burlingame, CA, as well as over 175 private, corporate, and museum collections such as: The Sasse Museum of Art, Pomona, CA, The Crocker Museum, Sacramento, CA, The Triton Museum, Santa Clara, CA, Santa Cruz Museum of Art, Santa Cruz, CA, and the Newcomb Art Museum, New Orleans. Karver's work has recently been featured in What Women Create Magazine, Carpazine Magazine, The Woven Tale Press, ArtReveal Magazine, Artist Talk Magazine, Edge of Humanity Magazine, 5"x7", etc., and on the cover of numerous books, and has been reviewed over thirty times. She was born and raised in Chicago and now living in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband.

Summer Poppies Cyanotype Painting on Rag Paper, Contemporary Botanical, 30x22"

Located in Oakland, CA

This unique multistep technique is a combination of a painting and a photograph or monotype. Cyanotypes are a kind of alternative photographic process from the 1800s. The chemicals are different from those used in black and white photography. The light-sensitive chemicals can be used to print blue and white photographs from a large negative or a person can capture the silhouette of solid objects rather like an x-ray in blue and white. In her Delft Garden series, artist Christine So first drew the outline of a plant in pencil and then painted it in a dark room —not paint– but with the cyanotype light-sensitive emulsion. When the painting had dried, she arranged plants on top of the painted silhouette in a pattern that would leave gaps like lace, carefully moved the entire bundle outside while still covered and then exposed the pattern multiple times at different angles to the sun, to achieve various shades of blue and white. The heavy cotton watercolor paper then needed to be thoroughly rinsed in order to stop the darkening process. The silhouette here is of the Giant California Tree...
