Sherrie McGraw, Brodkin Contemporary Western Artists Project

Sherrie McGraw was interviewed in her Des Montes, New Mexico, studio on May 7, 2009, by Dickinson Research Center Director Chuck Rand. Curator of Art Ed Muno videotaped the interview. Studying at the Art Students League of New York, Sherrie was exposed to chiaroscuro painting in the tradition of Rembrandt and Velasquez through the instruction of David A. Leffel. Her work has earned notice and respect with awards from New York art shows such as Grand Central Art Galleries, the Salmagundi Art Club, and the National Arts Club. Sherrie is the author of The Language of Drawing: From An Artists Viewpoint.

Film clips are from an interview with artist Sherrie McGraw as part of the A. Keith Brodkin Contemporary Western Artists Project. The full interview is available for viewing in the Donald C. & Elizabeth M. Dickinson Research Center, National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

The A. Keith Brodkin Project facilitates the collection, preservation, and accessibility of primary resources such as personal papers, studio ephemera, photographs, libraries, and other items which are often overlooked and lost to posterity and which reflect the artists life and career. Additional resources are acquired through personal oral histories via recorded interviews. Collecting these resources effectively preserves artists careers for posterity and provides future artists, art historians, educators, and researchers with documentary evidence.
