Sherry Smith Bell
Sherry Smith Bell creates prints of houses, barns, and archetypal shapes on plates of high-impact plastic. Her latest drypoint prints are from a series of visual phototypic houses based on personalized architecture. The plates are cut to delineate the visual essence of structure, using the tools of the printmaker: line, tone, color, ink, shape, embossment, press, and handmade paper. Her works are represented in many permanent and private collections.
"My visual ideas use objects such as doors, windows and houses as metaphors for change. The emotional states of solitude, expansiveness, peace, and serenity are evoked by architectural images. These images deal with change as the only constant in perception and in art."
