Collection: Robert Sherrill
As a southern California artist, Robert Sherrill portrays the majestic beauty of the natural world around him. Whether it's watercolor or oil, he captures the effects of light, shape, and color in his exhilarating paintings.
Raised in Southern California as a child, Robert lost himself in nature, art, and science. He spent his childhood hiking, camping, exploring, and raising animals with his family. It's these experiences that are reflected in his artwork today. As a child, he was constantly drawing, painting, and journaling daily. He always knew that studying nature and the world around him would be a part of his life.
His studies began at a young age when his mom would take him to museums and continued through high school. He took his studies more seriously at Riverside Community College when he accepted a position as a draftsman and artist at an architecture firm, then decided to further his knowledge at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, Ca. in 1987. Upon graduating from Art Center in 1990, he worked as an Illustrator, backdrop artist, and art director.
Sherrill has shown in group and solo exhibitions throughout Southern California, participated in regional shows for three decades, winning numerous awards, and publishing two books.
