Fort Collins, CO - United States
Cheryl Allin - Fine Artist
Member Since: 12/05/2010
I am a lover of the great outdoors and all that it contains. I was raised in the Bangor, Maine area which I am sure is the reason that I love and respect nature and it's wonders. I now reside in Fort Collins, Colorado where I enjoy the great Rocky Mountains. I have traveled to many lands over the past twenty years and have always enjoyed photographing the amazing sights. My real passion is painting. I was inspired to paint by two very dear friends of mine, Ruth McKee Hornberger and Don Hornberger, who now paints the skies above us from heaven. This wonderful couple gave me the encouragement needed when I showed them my very first painting. I have enjoyed experimenting with oil paints and different techniques. My work is a variety of impressionistic abstracts and minimalism. I generally prefer a tight pallet.
One of my true joys in life is children. I am very involved with the local Child Advocacy Center where I volunteer weekly. I am currently engaged in setting up fundraising events in my community involving the local artists. I will be featuring youth artists as we need to inspire them to take our places someday. I believe in giving of oneself to positively impact the future and those around us. Charity never fails!
