Bio
Sheryl Daane Chesnut was born in the Seattle area but moved at an early age to Marblehead, MA. While still in her formative years she relocated to the Bay Area and California has been her home since then. She worked for a number of years as a graphic and product designer earning national and international awards. Although she now works full time in fine art, her years in design are evident in the color, composition and balance of her paintings.
