"The chair in the sky represents an experience I had in meditation in 1986, after being initiated by Deepak Chopra in what Maharishi Mahesh Yogi called the psycho-physiological or bliss technique in Pacific Palisades, CA, right before I started driving to move to Santa Fe, NM from Santa Barbara. During this meditation, I was clearly sitting in a chair with my feet on the ground but also up in the silent, unbounded sky with the stars all around me. The ladders provide a pathway to the full moon, which represents inner spiritual fullness, the Mother Goddess, Queen of the Heavens, whose influence on us is profound. Patanjali described one of the siddhis (fully developed human powers/talents) as the ability to touch the moon with your fingertips. I painted a number of ladders to make that easy."

"My first memory is of insisting when I was four that prospective buyers of our Atlanta house see the paintings I'd done in my bedroom closet." Born Atlanta, GA. Grew up in Jacksonville, FL. 30 years Santa Fe, NM. 8 years in Marin County, CA. “Art is a doorway, the freshness of the fountain within. My inspiration comes from quiet interior states, meditation experiences, and contemplative creative time with nature, books, and art. I create art that expands and enlivens consciousness, that nourishes, heals and makes whole, and is a wonder to myself and others.” Artist Interviews: https://theheroinejourney2016.wordpress.com/2017/07/06/the-heroines-journey-of-sherri-silverman/ + many more from 2022, 2023 on my website.
