Mist Gallery presents Cheryl Hart – Spring Delights solo exhibition

MIST GALLERY presents a solo exhibition by CHERYL HART – Spring Delights

I live in the beautiful Northern Rivers, NSW, Australia. I love to create beautiful intuitive and unique artworks exploring the enduring nature of life.  I began my working career in Accounting and worked in finance for 20 years. I picked up my first paint brush in 2002, and what started as a hobby has turned into a lifelong passion. I have a fascination for Angelic and Etheric Artwork, and in my own work I love creating paintings infused with symbology. I enjoy reading about art history, and I’m deeply inspired by the Italian Renaissance Artists, Michelangelo, Sandro Botticelli and Fra Angelico.
The paintings in this exhibit draw on the inner visions and guiding symbols that have reminded me that beyond every winter season there is a spring. Bringing new beginnings, and signs of hope. Each piece has become a different way to express the beauty of seasonal change. The charcoals pieces represent the contrast of winter to spring. The rawness of the charcoal is the perfect medium to explore the duality we often see in nature and our own life during the winter season. The oil paintings bring in luscious colour and a new level of warmth.
What inspires me:
I love exploring the undefined and limitless nature of life, feeling into the essence of who we are, which to me is divine. We are so much more than our physical form, yet the study of the human form illuminates our divinity.
I have a fascination for Angelic and Etheric Artwork, and I’ve been inspired in my own work to explore the texture of feathers which symbolise the beautiful guiding presence around us, working with their delicate nature bringing texture and softness to their presence on the canvas.
