Sherry Pollack Walker is an artist who splits her time between Newport Beach, California and Rossland, British Columbia.

Originally from NYC, Sherry started her art education studying under Mr. Ron Mehlman at The Brooklyn Museum. After receiving her BFA from Boston University School of Fine Arts, Sherry returned to NYC and began her career as an art director / graphic designer.

She rose to the top in her field while working for international advertising agencies as creative director/VP for high profile clients such as Jaguar Cars, BMW and Ford.

Young & Rubicam brought her west to Southern California as a senior vice president/Creative Director for the Lincoln/Mercury Brand and Sony brand. A high point at Y&R, Lincoln partnered with VANITY FAIR, which resulted in Sherry creating and designing inserts focusing on up and coming Celebs for the HOLLYWOOD issues. This gave Sherry access to lots of parties. After a successful career as a Creative Director for international advertising agencies Sherry returned to her passion for fine arts and roots in drawing and painting.

"Painting is an exercise of patience and concentration, it is about looking without assuming and listening without interrupting. It is an invitation to linger, which rewards awareness and self-perception. To practice observation through painting is to resist an urge to generalize. Above all else I am interested in color, shape, light, space, and brush stroke, as problems to be solved through careful study and nuanced adjustments. "

Sherry currently is an active participant at the Art Students League of New York and sits on the Board of Directors of the Pacific Art Foundation of Orange County.
