Artist's Statement
"I paint people to honor them, to help preserve their own heritage. I paint to celebrate the mystery of life which allows me to leave behind a portion of myself."
- Sherry Andrychuk
"The innocence and beauty of children always remind me of the sacredness of life. There is almost a mystical beauty in the face of a child. It is a hope and vision for a better world."
"My works range from realistic to impressionism, to whimsical, to visionary. Much of my work is birthed from my poetry and are narratives of my psychological exploration. They represent my own solitude and reflection - dichotomies of innocence and wisdom."
"My personal goal is to ultimately create art that heals the wounded heart and is filled with spirit to feed a hungry soul."
"A portion of all proceeds from my work are sent to Maputo, Mozambique where I contribute to over 1000 abandoned, displaced and orphaned children."
