Today

2007 represented a major milestone in Sherree's life and career, marking her 30th successful year as the UK's leading figurative artist. To celebrate this remarkable achievement, she released a stunning commemorative hardback book. ‘First Impressions' is a beautifully illustrated retrospective of the artist's work confirms her reputation as the face of Modern British Impressionism. Sherree continues to be one of our finest artists. Despite the ever-changing demands of artistic fashion and a fickle contemporary art market, she has never compromised in her artistic aims and values, and as a result has achieved a formidable status in the art world. In her own words:

"In terms of my reputation I do feel that I have been quite fortunate. Once your work makes it into major galleries and people start to sit up and take notice, you know that you are making an impact. This may sound a little strange, but I think I'm seen as a genuine painter, someone who buys into the whole concept of observation, interpretation, beauty, form, compositional balance, and uses the trusted medium of oils on canvas. This perhaps sets me apart from some artists at work today, and makes me appear to be a traditionalist. And insofar as I adhere to these traditional artistic values, I suppose I am. But I do operate strictly within the parameters of modern life, painting decisive moments from rugby matches or producing portraits of TV presenters in front of cameras! – in a way that I hope, believe, will continue to communicate with a contemporary audience."
