Sylvia Herrington graduated with honors at Eastern Mi. University and won the painting award for watercolor painting in 1987. She observes everything around her in order to paint what she does, which is abstract watercolor painting. She is very much influenced by nature and it's cycles. She does not paint with recognizable objects in her paintings because she wants the viewer to use his or her own imagination to see what he or she wants to see. Sylvia enjoys using her imagination to present to the viewer new ideas he or she has not experienced before. Sylvia feels she cannot paint a more beautiful painting than what nature presents in it's natural state. For that reason, Sylvia shoots photography in order to capture natural beauty with her own brand of vision. Stopping to raise a family and care for a sick relative, Sylvia has gone right back to art with gusto.
