Traditional Cheri Blum Wall Art

In her brilliant but brief career, Cheri Blum, (1969 - 2003) created more than 400 original paintings. Many of those images have been published or licensed on home products and sold throughout the world. There are more treasures in Cheri’s portfolio that have not been introduced to the market, providing a legacy of artwork that will continue to express the natural elegance of her artistry in the years to come. Cheri Blum began her career as an illustrator and muralist, creating trompe l’oeil, faux painting and decorative furniture finishes. This background not only provided her with techniques she used to create her beautiful, unique backgrounds, but also a strong desire to bring art into everyday life. “We should be able to surround ourselves with beautiful art in our homes and offices, not just when we visit museums and galleries.” Cheri’s approach was inspired by the past, but reflected today’s modern styles. She strove to create art that was peaceful, tranquil and edited of unnecessary detail. The simple, graceful shapes she painted have a timeless quality and restful feeling that make them easy to live with and enjoy.
