Chessney Sevier
Chessney Sevier finds inspiration in the simple beauty and lifestyle of the Nebraska Sandhills where she grew
up, and in the Wyoming landscape where she lives today. The daughter of an artist, Chessney has pursued her
own career as a printmaker and painter since receiving her degree in fine arts from Nebraska's Chadron State
College in 1998.
Chessney considers herself a "Contemporary Western artist." Her work reflects her rural upbringing and heritage, and expresses her experience of the American West. She works primarily in intaglio or copper plate etching, a process in which each print must be inked and pulled by hand. She also paints in gouache, acrylic and oil, creating small-scale paintings that often depict community life in the rural West.
In recent years Sevier has shown annually at the Brinton Museum in Bighorn, WY, participating in the "Bighorn Rendezvous Show and QuickDraw Auction" and "The Brinton 101" as well as the Museum of Wildlife Art, Jackson, WY, "Western Visions"
