John Sherrin studied under the watercolourist, William Henry Hunt. Sherrin mainly worked in watercolour and specialised in still life and bird subjects. He exhibited at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Institute of Painters in Water-Colours. He was elected an associate of the Royal Institute in 1866, and a full member in 1879.
