Cher Shaffer

Of Native American and German heritage, Georgia born, self taught artist, Cher Shaffer brings her intense love of nature and happy childhood memories to her numerous artistic endeavors. Paintings, assemblages, sculptures and carvings showcase her joyful spirit and wonderful talent. "When people ask me if I'm a trained artist, I have to laugh. I'm not trained anything. I'm barely civilized." (Cher Shaffer, O'Appalachia, 1989)
