Cheryl Kuhn, a very sweet person and extremely talented artist is one whose works I collect and have shown on this blog in the past.....Her use of found materials, bits and pieces of poetry and vintage photographs to create these one of a kind amazing assemblages is both a marvel and an inspiration to me....
These two pieces we keep in the lake house and although the one above may have been shown previously....I was able to get some better photographs and wanted to share the details with you....
I recently received an email from a lovely lady named Traude in Vienna who thanked me for introducing her to Cheryl's work.....
Cheryl's work has also inspired Traude to do some creating of her own....I know that Cheryl would just love knowing that!
When I purchased this wonderful piece from Cheryl several years ago....it was at an Earth Angel's event in Warwick, NY....At the time Cheryl told me it was one of her favorites.... and the boat motif fit right in with our lake house...and of course....the poem spoke to me...
You can look at more of Cheryl's amazing assemblages at the Earth Angel's website and you can check out Cheryl's blog here....
Enjoy!

Just stopped over to check her out again but need to go back and see Earth Angels site. I don't remember seeing these pieces. I love them both but the first one with the nature theme is toooo wonderful.
I love her work!! I am going to come back and give you a link for some other artists who create fabulous things with found objects - I am so happy to find someone who loves this kind of art like I do!! Great post!!
Thanks for featuring this artist-her work is very pretty and leads your imagination at the same time. Thanks also for visiting my blog and leaving such a sweet comment-very nice considering what glimpses I see of your garden!
They are very complex and need to be looked at for a long time to see everyhing.....really different and unusual, Laura XXXX
The poem is a marvel!!! I'm off to see if she'll do a custom one for my parents with old photos.

Hi Laura. I love this artwork!! I do sometimes get Romantic Homes magazine in Australia and have seen her work there. She is truly inspiring! I love so much about her technique and of course am always a sucker for newsprint in art! Thanks for coming over my way again.. it is always a pleasure to have visitors. Julie
Hi Laura,
I am so happy to see that you are still enjoying your pieces, it was neat to see the boat piece as I am currently working on a piece using the same boat shape! I am so honored to be included in your wonderful blog and do so hope that we can meet again in person one day!! Thanks for all your kind words, you are too sweet!!!!
hugs, Cheryl
Hello dear Laura,
thank you so much for your “post of the day”! It was Jade who told me: Take a look to Lauras blog – and I really was thrilled by your wonderful Cheryl-Kuhn-Assemblages! She is great (and you are, too!) Oh and thank your for mentioning me – and mentioning me as a “lovely lady” ;-) !
Hope you got my mail from 16th with the missing text and some photos!
Take care,
Traude
Ciao Laura! Thank you so much for your so kind words! You can use special glass stencil and an etching cream to decorate glass...it's easy!
Your friend is very talented! She makes so nice artworks...very nice and you're lucky to collect some of them!
Wish you a nice evening!
Big hugs
