Check this for spelling and grammar errors Mikayla Sherfy specializes in works depicting the ever-changing landscape of New York City. She creates images and collages that attempt to capture a surreal feeling of wandering through the neighborhoods and what you pick up along the way. The sights, the textures, and the changes.

I grew up in the country and have been making art my whole life. Encouraged and trained by a multi-generational family of artists, I have made my career in the arts. I never tire of broadening my experience and understanding of my craft. That's why I love living surrounded by artists of all kinds in Brooklyn NY. The majority of my work is done in Watercolor and ink. However, I love experimenting with different mediums and formats. Here, you'll find adventures in mixed media, linocut, collage, and more among my illustrations. I believe that there is art everywhere and everything has the potential to be captivating. No matter how ordinary it's become to us. I am inspired most by the things we see in every day life. So, I put my surroundings into the work. A building, a storefront, a trashcan, cloths-lines. Its all art.
