Sherri Baldy has been a creator of Fantasy and whim in many art forms from the time she was a little girl. Sherri sold her first works of art to her 5th grade teacher, when her mother gave her oil pastels and art pads, then her whole world changed. She was often found doing her art (her one true love) every moment she could slip away. Her mother was her biggest fan. she would fall in love with every new piece of art work Sherri created, always encouraging her to keep developing her art and her dreams. In 1985 Sherri started designing a jewelry line, stores were soon calling and asking for more of her designs. Sherri then developed the line into a full clothing and accessories that soon was being sold world wide. The line "Passion Designs" was soon being worn at the Country Music Awards. Sherri has had such fun designing things like Designer Band-Aids to elegant bath lines. But her love for fantasy and whim could not be kept silent. She then started designing dolls again like she did as a little girl with her grandmother. Cloth dolls then sculpting in German clays, leading her deep into the fantasy world again. Her fairy and mermaid art was soon born and is now available in prints, greeting cards, original paintings and sculpted works of art. Her mother started promoting Sherri's art and quickly had her original sculptures being sold within 72 hrs in stores like the Ritz Carlton Hotel gift shops. Sherri was soon entering dolls shows and competitions and placing first place. She is proud to say her art is now being sold around the world.

Sherri as a child

Sherri's inspiration for these whimsical worlds comes from her lifelong love of fantasy. As a little girl she danced and played with imaginary fairies, and swam with invisible mermaids. She pushed her beloved frogs and toads in her baby buggy and collected snails from under the garden leaves. Her studio is now in her home town of San Clemente, California is surrounded by the beach, which provides her with wonderful visions of mermaids, fairies, dragons, castles and more. Sherri hopes you find her "Feel Good art" will touch the child in your heart, and take you to the happy place deep in the realm of fantasy and pieces of a child's dreams that inspire her work.
