I can't take the credit for the discovery it was a very nice forum member and yes it did take a bit of work to get a hold of her work and it was well worth the effort ;D

Especially as we only have two of the ten left!

I e-mailed her @ [e-mail] a month or so ago and got a fairly quick response.

I got 7 (!) originals from her for only $245 (!!!)

They're fantastic in person, but her packaging left a little to be desired. A few of my pieces got damaged because there was really no hard backing on the prints and the postman jammed the soft envelope into my mailbox.

Still an amazing deal to be had.

Cherri's art is very nice in a Candice Tripp way. Although the Opus Underground works were a bit too pretty for me, some of her darker work is quite strong. Given that we're talking about original works here and not prints, she is a bargain.

One for wor lass, as they say in the north east.

PMSL - Wor lass would tek yor heed clean off if she hord ye gannin on like that ;D

i really like the "do you like me?" piece. i love how she's daintily holding a bloody knife.

Hi all. Just wanted to add my 'two penneth' on the Cherri Woods front. I'm totally with Stuey on this one; I like the Opus work but I don't think as a collection of ten pieces they really do her justice at all.
About 70% of her other work I have seen is is darker and has more bite. All I can say is don't be thrown by the handbags in this selection!
I ordered some pieces a good few weeks ago and can't wait to see them in the flesh. Just a little concerned about what condition they will be in after reading ritedere's post about packaging.
I'll let you know how I get on. One of the pieces is a tall slim canvas called 'Soon to Depart' that I'm really excited about.

Looking forward to seeing it on here. I bought the abnormal canvas and have negotiated another along the same lines as Mariacarla.

[scavos]

Abnormal is something special isn't it? You did well to get that mate. Sounds like it's one of her old paintings.

[paulah]

Is there a pic of abnormal?

[CR]

where can you see her other stuff?

I'd love to see some of the darker stuff!

CR

[paulah]

No - don't stop Anthony - just keep it this way. We like it like this.
Looking forward to receiving mine. I'm hoping her future releases will have more of a darker edge. We'll all have to wait and see. Keep it up mate.
