Biography

Cher Anderson was born in 1962, in Kingston, New York, raised in Mexico City and greatly influenced by the culture and the country's vast number of pioneering artists. Relocated to Texas where she began showing an interest in fine arts, mostly painting. Through self-instruction, she achieved having several one-woman shows including an invitation to the City of Chihuahua, Mexico by the governor, where she had a one-woman exhibit in 1989.
At the end of 1989, she moved to Phoenix with her very young son and proceeded to get her degree in Graphic Design and Advertising. She spent the following years being a single mother and starting her own graphic company so she could work from home. The advent of digital photography and the opportunities to encounter wildlife in their natural environments helped her painting take on a whole new form.
Learning new mediums such as acrylics and perfecting her technique in watercolors to achieve realism and interpret the encounter with wildlife have now launched her forward in the art world.
Her retirement has now allowed the opportunity and time to return to her passion, dedicate herself to perfecting and promoting her work while giving back to many wildlife conservation organizations.
