Most pieces are born spontaneously, as the beads and Sherry’s imagination dictate the design. Sherry finds this meditative form of art to be a rich counterpoint to a society full of instant gratification.

Her work has been featured on the covers of trade magazines and catalogs and she authored Sensational Bead Embroidery and co-authored The Art of Bead Embroidery with Heidi Kummli.
