Sherree Andersen adds a youthful punch to the staff of Faux Painting School.  Sherree has been teaching art for 6 years and has apprenticed at Faux Painting School for over 16 years.  Her natural artistic abilities are enhanced by her decorative art training and experience teaching faux finishing classes and how to Venetian plaster classes.  Her work can be seen in residences and commercial establishments throughout California and Nevada.

Sherree started faux finishing when she was in High School because her mother, who is and has been a master faux and decorative painter for many years, insisted that she help.  She tells us, "In the beginning,  I hated it, but now that I have matured, I am grateful to her because she helped me find a career that I love and consider one of my blessings.  My mother and I worked on many jobs together including hotels, restaurants, and private homes.  I consider my practical experience a tremendous help to me as I continue my education in art."
