Art On Display
I am fascinated by things that the eye cannot see without magnification. This fascination opened a world for my creative mind to go beyond the limitations of minimalism and pure abstraction to feed my content with a basis of comprehension in a post-symbolist style.Exploring this work from a microscope or telescope lends prospective, providing a subject matter that is both intimate and endless. Through color and form, the viewer is free to slow down and generate a unique experience that plays on the ability to let go and allowsthe mind to experience it on a conscious and subconscious level.
–Cheryl M. Schubert – 2015
This artist statement is as true today as it was then.
What the artist realizes through the exploration of art since 2015, is utilizing a microscope and telescope brought to light the juxtaposition of these worlds. They share elements of each other. At times they mimic each other.In 2015, the addition of collecting specimen stones and fossils led the artist to see another layer of art. The chemistry of the earth, the use of materials from the earth leading to the creation of colors for painting. It all communicates the relationship of art, science, and math. It is the continued investigation of how the world reveals itself that drives the artist to continue to seek understanding and knowledge of the unexplored regions and connection of art to all things.

BEYOND ERIDANUS
This imagined work is the artist’s idea of what might be beyond the known space of Eridanus. The concept started in 2019 and morphed through phases of the artist’s imagination. Working on it for years, the final touches were made in 2023.
The thought being what is beyond the discovered regions of space. Some forty layers of color revealed this image.
It is one of the artist’s pivotal works delving into the unknown, being less abstract than most of her works. While most artists start with an underpainting laying out the composition, Cheryl trusts the unknown to reveal itself.
There are days the artist walks into her studio after the previous day’s exploration on canvas and wonders, “Who did that” remarking about the painting on the easel.
The artist shared an epiphany she experiences at times. Some days upon looking away from a painting she is working on she realizes three hours has evaporated.
There is a connectedness that Cheryl seeks with the unknown arenas of the world to the deepest regions of infinity. She is an explorer with a singular desire to see beyond.
Eridanus is a constellation which stretches along the southern celestial hemisphere. It is represented as a river. One of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century AD astronomer Ptolemy, it remains one of the 88 modern constellations. It is the sixth largest of the modern constellations. The same name was later taken as a Latin name for the real Po River and also for the name of a minor river in Athens. – Wikipedia

Entering the Seventh Plain – In an effort to visualize where God might have rested on the seventh day, I used pure imagination. Trails of water led my journey using layers of Duralar. I thought it should be peaceful yet inspiring, capturing the viewer, making a connection, and giving them a feeling of joy.
