"When I look at all the wonderful things God has created, I think wow, if only I could capture all the beauty He has given us in a painting."

Cheryl Brown Haas was born in Abilene, raised in a little community called Neinda and went to school in Hamlin. During her 8th grade year, she was introduced to art through her teacher, Mrs. Griggs, which started her on a path of continued growth, knowledge and a desire to put her feelings on canvas.

"God gave me this ability, so I need to use it and share with others."

After moving to Odessa, TX after she married, Cheryl met Kathy, her art teacher, who had studied under well-known artists in New Mexico. On several occasions, Cheryl had the privilege of going to the Albuquerque Pastel Convention to study under some great pastel artists. Recently, she had the honor to take a course from one of them, Desmond O’Hagan, which was so inspiring, since she had not really painted since her husband passed away in 2015.
