About Sherrie York

Printmaker, painter and draughtswoman, Sherrie York is an accomplished artist with an international reputation for lyrical and expressive works on paper. The beauty and mysteries she discovers on her walks inspire York’s nature-focused linocuts. Sherrie’s linocuts express her love for the outdoors, from the flora and fauna of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado to the waters of Maine. The beauty and mysteries she discovers in nature inspire York to take a detailed look.

York’s work combines the American and European sensibility to the creative process. The artist finds herself “pushing to put a certain degree of realism in the scene, and at the same time searching for a more interpretive sensibility. Treating the graphic medium of linocut as a watercolor by layering transparent color pushes the boundaries of what’s traditionally thought of as block printing.”

York’s work has been in many national and international juried exhibitions, including Birds in Art at the Woodson Art Museum in Wisconsin (2011-2017), Colorado Governor’s Invitational (2014-2017) at the Loveland Museum in Colorado, and the 2016 and 2017 Coors Western Exhibition & Sale in Denver. She is a signature member of the Society of Animal Artists and currently serves on the SAA board.
