statement

The Dreamscapes Series were inspired by my travels to the Mediterranean coastal towns of Spain.

I found that photographing in the impressionistic style causes the viewer to see the entire image with its palette of colors, form & light creating a mood, an emotion.  I want to convey to the viewer that the world we see in front of us is part of a larger reality and what appears to be clear and in focus is only our perception.





_“Cheryl Maeder is one of those rare talents that seems to effortlessly combine painting and photography into an engaging visual statement. 

She balances realism with a soft-focused whisper of faded color, creating her works with a sprinkle of magic that leaves the viewer in a dreamy state.  Part color field painter, part impressionist and part abstractionist, Maeder allows us to bring back our own nebulous memories of people and places through her photo postcard-like compositions, which are pushed to the edge of recognizability.”  Bruce Helander is an artist and contributor of Art News Magazine.
