Artist Statement:
Cherie Hanson: artist's
biography
The kindergarten teacher hung
the memographed outlines of
rabbits around the perimeters
of the class room.Then I saw I
was “different”. My rabbit was
wearing long, dark braids and
a buckskin dress. There were
no pale pastels and I had
little concern for the lines
given to me: I was focused on
the lines of the image in my
head. As a child, I dressed in
layers of fabric and tulle to
dance in the yard. I sang my
own versions of opera; I
drew; I wrote; I practiced
being a circus performer on my
two trapezes.
In Junior High and High
school, I appeared in plays,
continued to write poetry and
draw. Upon graduating, I
received the Hudson's Bay High
School award for top art
student out of a class of 368
graduates. I also received the
Washington State Arts' Council
Award for best Fiction awarded
by the Chairman of the
University of Washington's
English Department.
University was a time that I
explored all that fascinated
me. I took a Bachelor of Arts
in English, studied Modern
Dance, minored in Fine Arts
and worked on the college year
book as well...
