"Intuitive Abstractions" features mixed media and acrylic paintings by Cheryl Kinderknecht. Cheryl Kinderknecht is a visually impaired mixed media artist and painter who resides on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Part of a large creative family, artistic expression of one kind or another has always played a central and defining role in her life journey.

After moving to Florida’s Gulf Coast area Kinderknecht owned and operated a gallery on Siesta Key and then in Bradenton’s Village of the Arts. Currently residing in downtown Bradenton, Kinderknecht’s work is exhibited in local galleries, as well as in juried regional and national shows. Her work can be found in private and corporate collections throughout the United States, and her work has been represented since 2019 by ArtLifting, Boston, MA.
