Durango has long been home to a vibrant arts community, and local artist Cheryl Berglund is one of its brightest threads. KSJE 90.9 FM recently spotlighted Berglund’s milestone: a full decade of creating work defined by bold color, collage, and a spirit of joyful experimentation.
According to the KSJE report, Berglund’s artistic journey over the past ten years has been marked by a commitment to play — a quality that gives her work an infectious energy and keeps her creative practice fresh. Collage, with its layering of textures, patterns, and hues, sits at the heart of her output, and her use of color is a signature that has resonated with audiences in the Durango area and beyond.
Reaching a ten-year milestone as a working artist is no small achievement, and Berglund’s story is a reminder of the rich creative life that flourishes in southwest Colorado. Local arts coverage like this from community radio station KSJE 90.9 FM plays an important role in shining a light on the individuals who make Durango’s cultural scene so distinctive.
Whether you are a longtime admirer of Berglund’s work or discovering her for the first time, her decade of dedication to color, collage, and play is well worth celebrating. Keep an eye on local galleries and KSJE programming for opportunities to experience her art firsthand.
