Sherry McGuire is the creator and curator behind Scarlett Cougar, a pop art gift line known for its bold humor, irreverent charm, and refusal to take this mortal coil too seriously. From snarky greeting cards to giggle-snorting tea towels and aprons, Scarlett Cougar celebrates the art of laughing loudly and living unapologetically.

​

She is also the artist behind Alchemyic Artisan, a body of mixed-media work that transforms relics, raw materials, and forgotten matter into soulful objects steeped in story. Her layered creations weave together paint, wood, metal, ephemera, and found objects—each piece a portal into the archetypes that shape our shared human experience.

​

Before launching these two worlds, Sherry spent 18 years as a salon owner proudly representing Aveda in San Jose and built a career as a Creative Art Director in Silicon Valley, specializing in packaging design. Today, she continues her craft in hair design at her private studios Beauty Love Alchemy in Morgan Hill & Paso Robles, where artistry, storytelling, and transformation remain at the heart of her work.

That same spirit of reinvention drives everything she creates—whether she’s designing fine art, bold gifts, or unforgettable moments of laughter.
