About the Creator
Cheryl John
Crookwell, NSW Australia
Always a fan of history, I love writing memoirs and short stories to give as gifts to family and friends. Photography too has been a passion most of my life after receiving my first camera for Christmas when I was nine years old. By combining these loves I now produce photo books that have proved popular with many. I have been painting in the traditional Chinese Brush Painting Style for over 35 years and enjoy exhibiting my work as well as illustrating children's books. I have now completed 7 children's books and look forward to working on many more. I hope you enjoy my books. Thanks for your interest Best wishes Cheryl
