Meet Sherry

Sherry Kravitz is a painter, sailor, and lifelong maker who believes that color can speak where words fall short. Based in Naples, Florida, her work is inspired by the elements—sunsets, storms, ocean winds—and the quiet beauty of everyday life.

What Inspires Her

The water. The wind. Her travels. Each painting is an attempt to capture a moment—and share it.

Her Story

Sherry grew up between Pennsylvania and Key West in a family of artists. Her mother was a potter. Her father a draftsman. Art was always in the air.

She studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and spent 25 years painting homes and murals, before returning to the canvas full-time. Each painting is rooted in feeling—a memory, a mood, a place you’ve been or dreamt about.

Now, from her sunlit studio, she creates vibrant, layered acrylic works that have found homes in doctors’ offices, restaurants, and living rooms across the country. She paints what moves her: martinis, sea birds, abstract moments of joy. And when a piece speaks to someone else? That’s the magic.
