5 out of 5 starsCherie did a portrait of my brother/sister in law's dogs as a Christmas gift. It turned out absolutely amazing. When my sister in law opened the gift, she immediately started shedding happy tears. Saying they love it is an understatement.
Cherie is amazing and she will definitely continue to be our go to for portraits. -

5 out of 5 starsOh my gosh, the was just amazing. I purchased this as a Christmas gift for a dear friend of mine whose dog is probably more special than a human she has ever met. When my friend opened the gift, her words were "This is the best gift ever!!" and almost cried. Cherie's drawing depicted Jack (her dog) to a T! I was blown away by the accuracy of the drawing. Cherie was great to work with and delivered on the picture on time. Highly recommend her. I will be returning for future purchases!

5 out of 5 starsOutstanding! Cherie was very quick with responding to questions and walked me through the whole process. She answered all of my questions and provided a sketch for approval before she finished to check if we wanted any changes before she continued. This was a custom portrait of my husbands grandparents dogs and we gave it to them as a Christmas gift. It brought them both to tears, they absolutely loved it! The detail in her work is incredible! Highly recommended!
About CherieTaylorStudio
Cherie Taylor - Artist
ARTIST BIO
Cherie Taylor is a fine artist specializing in ink and watercolor drawings. Her work is varied, but usually draws from themes in nature. Her interest in the arts started from a young age, inspired by many talented family members! Growing up the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, she was influenced by the nature and wildlife around her. She continued to develop her skills as an artist throughout her childhood by drawing what she saw while enjoying the great outdoors.
She continued her formal education in college, graduating from Virginia Tech in 2008 with a Bachelors of Fine Art in Studio Art. She has worked in the arts industry in various capacities over the years including as a 3D animation artist, photographer, and videographer but switched gears in 2016 to pursue her dream of being a full-time studio artist.
Cherie currently lives in Sterling, Virginia with her husband, Andrew. When not making artsy things, she can usually be found wandering around outside, camping, hiking, or off-roading in their lifted Xterra. She also loves cooking, listening to rock/metal music, singing along to Broadway musicals, and reading all things nerdy.
ARTIST STATEMENT
I strive to make beautiful things that inspire myself and others. I am fascinated by extreme contrast, both visually and conceptually. My work plays on the visual differences between the black of the ink and the bold and bright colors of watercolor – the details in the intricate lines of pen play alongside loose washes. I love the outdoors, and most of my pieces represent some form of nature – animals, landscapes – and the relationship humans have with nature. I find myself most inspired when I am outside, whether it’s hiking, camping, or going for a drive on back-country roads. I love to create visual representations of these moments that evoke the same emotions of inner peace I feel when I am interacting with nature and I hope my work can evoke the same emotions for the viewer. I am also fascinated by conceptual contrasts – good vs evil – and use my art as a method to explore these concepts.

Frequently asked questions
What Materials and Mediums Do You Use?
I love to experiment with new materials and mediums, and I try not to limit myself. But lately my favorite mediums have been ink, watercolor, and colored pencil. I also love painting with oils and acrylics. My favorite materials right now include my Shinhan Professional watercolor paints, Dr Ph. Martins Inks, Pigma Micron Pens, Faber-Castell pens, Strathmore Mixed Media paper, Prismacolor Pencils, and Canson Mi-Teintes paper.
Are Your Materials Archival?
Yes, always! I make sure every piece of my artwork is acid-free and archival to protect it and ensure its quality through the years. This includes all of my mediums, paper, canvas, and packing materials. I also only use professional grade mediums.
If I Buy Your Artwork, Am I Allowed to Make Prints or Reproductions?
No. I maintain ownership rights of reproduction and use of my artwork’s image. Use of such image, either in part or in its entirety in the aforementioned capacities is not allowed without written consent from me.
What Happens If My Artwork is Damaged in Shipping?
Please reach out to me immediately if your artwork is damaged in shipping. I would be more than happy to fix the artwork, where possible, or try to replace the damaged work. I would also be happy to refund you the price of the damaged work if you provide documentation of the damage.
Is The Artwork Exactly As It Appears on Etsy?
I make every effort to represent the artwork digitally as close to the original as possible, but please allow for slight color variance due to the differences in computer monitors.
