ABSTRACTION by Cheryl Ehlers, Dec 5 - Jan 14, 2016, E101 Gallery, Encinitas, CA

Visit www.Cherylehlersart.com
ABSTRACTION with  Cheryl Ehlers, "paint what the eyes do not see". 

December 5 thru January 14, 2016, E101 Gallery, 8185 Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas, CA

The Abstraction exhibit is a flow of feeling, thoughts and imagination.  Bright in colors and free flowing shapes, it brings your mind to ponder what was on the artists mind at the very moment of creation? Thoughts become pictures in the mind.  You can feel them.  Placing a brush to a canvas allows the thoughts and colors to flow and is the ultimate experience in painting. 

"Creativity is not duplicating what your eyes see, it is the road that takes you onto many unknown paths. The end result is artistic expression and reveals the personality of an artist at that moment in time. I always want to be evolving in my art techniques", states Ehlers


Ehlers is an accomplished and published artist. Her exhibition portfolio includes venues domestically from San Diego to New York City, as well as internationally including, France, Italy, Germany and New Zealand. This exhibition will showcase Ehlers’ works in mixed mediums and brings color to the surface.

She is the current City of Encinitas, Arts program assistant, managing 3 galleries, and the founder and owner of The Stardust Arts, a youth art program that provides the development of creativity and imagination to those that have the desire and drive to experience art and obtain the academic enrichment it provide to the children in schools today. Teaching over 12,600 students, in school programs since 2009, The Stardust Arts is supported by community donations, grants and sponsorship's and is recognized by the California State Assembly for its contributions to art in local communities and the San Diego Board of Supervisors.


Thank you to the San Dieguito Art Guild for sponsoring The Stardust Arts upcoming exhibition on December 5th at the Encinitas Civic Center Gallery.  Stop by and view the student art.
