Cheri Christensen Art

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.

"Cowgirls" oil painting of black and white cows in a row with grass behind
Located in Edgartown, MA
“I am inspired by the simple everyday interaction of the animals in their environment: the way the light dances across the form, the harmony of color relationships and the shapes of light and shadow. I prefer early-morning light or late afternoon settings, with extreme backlighting. My focus is on the farm animals, their character and the use of color, light and texture to convey a mood.” 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 B.A. from the University of Washington.
