Darlene Olivia McElroy comes from an old New Mexico family of artists, musicians and inventors. She is a mad scientist of art techniques and is continually exploring new surfaces, materials and techniques.
Throughout her career McElroy has combined head and heart in her journey of creating evocative mixed-media paintings. Trained as a painter and illustrator, she has an obsession for materials, passion for dreamlike imagery, and love of new technologies, which she uses to immerse herself in richly textured surfaces, mixtures of old and new, and brilliant and subdued tones. And always, there is a face or symbol of humanity that serves as a guide into mysterious layers which challenge reason and draw upon emotions.

Cheri's seemingly casual aesthetic shifts emphasis from outrageous and funky to tender and charming. Re-creating child like images with recurring motifs such as dogs, stuffed animals, flowers and religious iconography she attempts to understand her world with finding humor in beauty and the beauty of humor.

About Me….
I am originally from the Philadelphia area. My husband and I moved to Eldorado at Santa Fe in 2012 after living in Phoenix for eighteen years. We love it here.
I am a licensee of the Santa Fe Artists’ Market, member of the Eldorado Arts and Crafts Association, Northern New Mexico Fine Arts and Crafts Guild.
While In Phoenix, I started to develop my own process of Blended media called PhotoAlchemy. Not only is it a creative way to showcase my photographs, it represents many of my favorite art forms like quilting, mosaics, stained glass, ceramics.
PhotoAlchemy is constantly evolving. I find new ways to use my images in different arrangements, using different surfaces and mixing with other textures.
For the past several years, I have enjoyed meeting people from all over the world and helping them choose a piece for their spaces.
Mosaics, to me, are a metaphor for one’s life. Each event, each person we meet, each experience is a piece. Every piece fits together to create the masterpiece which is a person’s entire life. I choose to play with a variety of media while incorporating two and three dimensional surfaces.
... All of the pieces fit.

"My art is based on photos taken of interesting compositions found in ordinary, daily reality, unmanipulated except for color, although occasionally I experiment with applying bi-lateral symmetry to an image. It's very exciting, being able to create abstract images based directly on everyday reality. All this inspired by 25 years of enjoying an astonishing variety of abstract art in the museums and galleries while living in New York City. I refer to the process as Photo/Painting Alchemy, and the resulting body of work as Imaginarium. Preferring not to repeat myself, each piece should be a new visual adventure."

After experimenting with oil and acrylic, I found my true affinity is with transparent watercolor. I love its spontaneity, its freedom of flow, the surprises, and the challenge to master or at least control the independence of its gentle yet willful nature. I do still lifes now and then, but I am particularly attracted to landscapes. Color and light are the elements that most strike my sensuous core. Watercolor seems to best capture for me the vibrancy and translucence of sky, earth, water and all that grows and travels therein. I may know where I want to go, but how to get there is always an adventure.

As an artist, what interests me most is portraying relationships through the essence of the moment.... I work predominately on a grand scale in a vibrant, colorful manner with loose sweeping brushwork in acrylic on canvas.

My work expresses deep feelings about my inner world and relationships. A life-changing sojourn in Japan and especially the ability of the Japanese people to “make space” in the mind and heart in the midst of crowds greatly influences my work. My paintings are further inspired by living in the high desert of New Mexico where the land and skies – vibrantly colored, constantly shifting – captivate my imagination I give voice to the freedom that comes from squeezing through.

While much of my bronze sculpture expresses some of my favorite animal personalities, my curiousity for new subjects, sculpture mediums and 3D technology, have given me a new inspiration for creating and casting sculpture.

I paint exotic landscapes - my versions of heaven - shimmering with gold leaf and other reflective materials, to create places that are beautiful and meditative not found on earth. If you're up for a creative experience, please contact me to arrange a custom commission painting for your home or office. I also provide painting classes, books and instructional videos that include my unique systems and methods for teaching contemporary painting techniques.

In the very noisy, chaotic, cacophony of our visible/audible world aloud with swirling voices and conflicting diatribes, I have found myself continuing to be fascinated with the more subtle nuances of human expression, gesture, movement, moment, action, interaction, and reaction which offer to me a sense of wonderment.
