BIOGRAPHY

About Sherrill

CHASE was born in Montreal, Québec, in November 1942.

CHASE, who has painted many years in Canada, has been influenced by a wealth of personal experiences, living in such places as St. Vincent in the West Indies, Sweden, Key West Florida, and Santa Cruz California. SHERRILL CHASE studied at the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts where she was awarded the prestigious “Frothingham Scholarship” for three consecutive years, by Arthur Lismer, (one of the founders of the Group of Seven). Other prominent Canadian painters, such as Gentile Tondino, Patrick Landsley, Claude Tousignant, and Stanley Lewis, provided additional instruction.

In Sweden, CHASE was an elected member of the Royal Organization of Swedish Artists KRO.

CHASE currently calls Airdrie Alberta her home. After living several years in Kelowna and Osoyoos British Columbia, she now paints and maintains a studio in Airdrie Alberta. She lives there with her husband, Don, and their two toy dachshunds, Toby and Emily.

The CHASE PAINTINGS

Sherrills` paintings have been described as “interiors-exteriors, combined still lifes – which are anything but still”. They may be set against a backdrop of flowing curtained windows or doors through which the outside can be viewed. The outside view complements and is integral to the interiors.

CHASE works with a rich palette ranging from bold primary colours to serene pastels. The viewer is invited to enter the painting and experience the whimsey and happiness portrayed within.

Ever versatile, in addition to still lifes, CHASE loves to paint pet portraits that are lifelike and capture the personality of each subject, bringing a smile to all who view her work.

CHASE has painted 29 train stations from Place Viger in Old Montréal, all the way up to the end of the Laurentian line, often braving the elements and painting en plein air. She has also done many paintings of old Montreal.
