The Coastal Artist Quietly Making the Kind of Art You Actually Want to Live With
Cherie Coco, founder of Stride Coastal didn't start out making coastal art.
She ran an abstract art business that wasn't working — and she'll tell you exactly what happened the day she knew it.
"I had a panic attack. I sat with it for a while, scared, and asked myself what I actually wanted to make — and who it was actually for. The answer was the beach. The answer was the calm I felt there, and the people who felt it too."
Stride Coastal came out of that.
Every piece is original — designed by Cherie, printed on heavy-weight gallery-wrapped canvas, made when you order. She offers a 30-day guarantee. If it doesn't work when it arrives, she'll make it right.
But what I keep coming back to is how she talks about the art:
"I want you to hang it where you can see it at least five times a day."
Not as part of a decor scheme. Not to tie the room together. Just — the piece that hooks your eye every time you walk past it. At one year, five years, ten.
She's not a decorator. She doesn't want to coordinate your throw pillows. She makes art for women who love to look at the shore
Her piece Evening Shore is a good place to start — a panoramic sunset with a single piece of driftwood on a quiet beach. Soft blues, warm sand tones, real canvas texture you can actually feel.
