Cherie Burbach has been an artist and writer ever since she was a young child. Creativity was a safe place for her and a way to work through a turbulent childhood. Drawing and writing poetry were how she worked through anything that made her sad or scared.
This desire to offer hope and encouragement is the intention behind her art. She is a self-taught artist, painting almost every day. She also writes poetry and other works, and feels words and images are closely tied in telling a story of faith and confidence about the future.
She grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has written dozens of poetry, art, and nonfiction books, and a novel. She’s taught mixed media art classes, and exhibited in various venues throughout Wisconsin, California, Michigan, and New York.
She’s written for places like NBC/Universal, the New York Times, Christianity Today, and more. Her functional art pieces and prints are sold in arts centers galleries throughout the Midwest.
She paints with bright colors and whimsical images to show the light of a world beyond this one, where there is only hope and possibility.
