About Cheryl
My studio is located in the beautiful mountain town of Roanoke, Virginia. It is there that I sculpt, write and participate in the arts. I have studied my craft in Italy, Greece and France. My four books and other artwork can be viewed and purchased on my etsy shop. Thank you for visiting my blog. If you have any questions or comments, you may e-mail me at cherdolby@cox.net.
