Meet Cherry Hood

Cherry Hood's distinctive oversized watercolour paintings of faces have led to her winning the prestigious Archibald Prize in 2002, as well as to being selected numerous times as an Archibald finalist - including the first watercolour painting to ever be hung as part of the Archibald. Having studied art at St George Tech, the National Art School and Sydney College of the Arts (University of Sydney), Cherry is passionate about education and regularly shares her knowledge and practices through workshops and gallery talks.

Over her 20-year painting career, Cherry has had countless solo shows in Australia and overseas, including New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Vancouver and Zurich, as well as being invited to contribute to numerous group and theme exhibitions. Her works have been collected by most major institutions in Australia as well as by many corporate and private collectors.
