When
searching for subject matter Sherry turned to
photography. She journeyed over dirt roads looking
for reference materials for her paintings. She
went picture-crazy upon finding treasures such
as mule deer beside the road, cat tails by the
lake, an old barn or even a prairie dog town.
On
one such occasion, after weeks of art shows and
completing a large oil painting she set off with
her parents for a 3-day trip to the Sonora Desert
Museum in Tucson.
