Sherry Harrington, a fifth-generation Texan who grew up in Fort Worth, has only made one big move in her lifetime. Harrington and her husband moved just outside of Waco to raise their two sons in the country. Being just a 30-minute drive to Clifton—home of several well-known Western artists—she has found plenty of artist and patron support.
Harrington says traveling to the Western states and reservations has continued to be important for inspiration for her new work. She says, “It has been extremely exciting and humbling recording some of the Plains Native Americans and the traditionally dressed Navajo people. Lifelong friendships have been made along the way.” During her travels, she also has been able to paint the traditional horse and rider, both cowboy and Native American.
She will participate in the Briscoe Western Art
Museum’s 2018 Night of Artists, and will have her painting Slow Steps on Native Land on display. As a member of the American Women Artists, she will be participating in their upcoming exhibitions, and her work is represented by Big Horn Galleries of Cody, Wyoming, and Tubac, Arizona.
