Meet Sherry Valley Senecal, the face of this year’s Fall Art Fair at Gooseneck Vineyard! We’re so happy to feature Sherry and her beautiful work in this year’s fair.

Sherry’s lifelong connection to the natural world began in the forests, streams, and meadows of her New Hampshire childhood. Today, she translates that deep connection into atmospheric oil paintings inspired by landscapes, animals, light, and the quiet beauty of nature. Drawing from tonalism, realism, and impressionism, Sherry works intuitively, building layers of color and texture to capture not simply what a place looks like, but how it feels.

Her paintings invite us to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world. We’re thrilled to have Sherry’s work—and her beautiful image—represent this year’s Fall Art Fair. Visit her booth and experience the stillness, beauty, and connection woven into each painting. https://instagram.com/sherryvalleyart
