Artist Statement

Sherita T. Sparrow—affectionately known as The Healing Artist—is a World-Class Therapeutic Art Practitioner, Author, Entrepreneur, Educator, Speaker and Reiki Practitioner. A Wilmington, Delaware native, Sherita discovered her love for art as a child, and ever since, it has become the heartbeat of her life’s work: healing the world emotionally and spiritually through creativity.

​

Her art is a seamless blend of storytelling, intuitive expression and symbolism, celebrating the cultural richness and vibrancy of her community. With acrylics, chalk pastels, torn paper, and embellishments, she creates soulful, textured pieces that invite reflection, stir emotion, and spark meaningful conversations.

​

Her work has been featured in Delaware Today Magazine, The News Journal, Catonsville Times, and Helpful Living Magazine, and she is the proud recipient of three 2025 Community Awards honoring her excellence in Art Education, Specialty Art Services, and Holistic Wellness.

​

For over 20 years, Sherita has led holistic art sessions in schools, nursing homes, and community centers, witnessing firsthand how art uplifts spirits, bridges generations, and transforms lives from the inside out. She believes that when art fills our everyday spaces, it nurtures imagination, belonging, and emotional growth.

​

Through her creative journey, Sherita’s deepest hope is that every person she touches learns to see the beauty within themselves and embraces the personal power they already carry.
