Go to my site: cheryljohnsonartist.com Piano Inspiration Series I am first and foremost an artist. I love creating. Painting is my passion and each day I am blessed to be able to draw or paint or simply create. I work hard and am learning about creating an online presence and am always thrilled when someone wants to purchase an original or a print.  Believe me, it takes a lot of work. So I must remind myself to keep going and keep believing in my gift and the talent I have been given. I am blessed to have a partner who supports and encourages me. Every day I am thankful for my blessings. Please take the time to peruse my various online sites and give me some feedback or subscribe to my newsletter.

If you have not made it by my new site please go: cheryljohnsonartist.com UPDATE:  I will be back in Hawai in June: I made my reservations last night to go back home to Hawaii for the summer season.  Yeah! There is nothing I enjoy more than walking by the ocean at Kee in the morning. The inspiration is overwhelming. The beauty is everywhere. If you are lucky there are rainbows when you are flying in. I love the ocean and really enjoy getting out my paints and painting plein air.  How does one paint a rainbow?  From morning till the sunsets the view is amazing. Kee at sunset is magnificent. I love painting the sea.  I call this - Rothko Sea...layers of Rothko colors
