About Member

Peace, I am Cheryl Oknefski and my business name is Peaces Of Me. I bring the peace I have in my life from my Yoga, Reiki, Organic Farming and living in the Allegheny National Forest into my Art. I have been creative and crafty since I was a child when I would spend care free days learning art from my Grandma, sister and wonderful school teachers and also being curious and observant of the world around me.I was born in Ridgway Pa but moved away at the age of 20. I lived in many different places in the USA and Germany. I raised two uniquely artistic children James and Jessica. Growing up in a family of nine helped me to figure out new and inventive ways to do things as I was trying to be different then my three brothers and three sisters. I decided on the name of my business because of my ability to dive into many different mediums all being pieces of me and also because of my life long process of trying to live as peacefully as possible, also pieces of me. Therefore becoming Peaces Of Me. My favorite mediums right now are Jewelry made from silver and cabochons and also fold forming metals; Knitting, mainly with specialty yarns; Chainsaw carving, needle felting and stained glass. I also sew; paint on canvas; Tie Dye; make dream catchers and many other crafty endeavors. I am also an Organic farmer, Yoga instructor, Reiki Master and Lover of life! I am happy to spend my days in Elk County and enjoy the beauty that we here in PA are blessed with. Spending much of my time in nature or creating.
