Sherri Prevost

I was 16 when I moved with my parents from Sherwood Park, Alberta to Nanaimo, BC.  As soon as the ferry docked at this wonderful place, I knew I was hooked to the island way of life.  It's where I met my husband, we bought our first home, I gave birth to our two daughters and it's where I learned that art was my passion. 

Painting brings me joy!  I never stop learning and believe what Joseph Campbell said.... “Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.”

For me, art is a language of energy and emotion translated through color, form and often texture.  I paint in a way that expresses my emotion and connection to the subject, sometimes enhancing or exaggerating scenes to convey the inner electricity I feel. 

Experimenting with various painting styles and mediums is exciting to me.  So when I get ideas for a painting, there's an immediate adrenaline rush inside and I'm obsessed for days or weeks until I act on those ideas.   ​
 

I hope you enjoy my art and this site.
