About the artist:
Andrea Sauer is an artist who focuses on color and composition. She works both realistically and abstractly, predominantly in oils and watercolors. All her paintings focus on her deep appreciation for the natural world and integrate her study of shamanism into her practice. She enjoys pushing lush colors and playing with the media in innovative ways. Her paintings have won many awards and have been exhibited across the U.S. More recently, Sauer has combined her twenty years of teaching art in the public school system with her understanding of trauma and the brain’s rewire ability to create a class that focuses on using painting as a meditative practice. She explores with her classes ways that indigenous cultures around the world have used intentional creativity and medicine painting practices to gain insight and heal lingering personal wounds. Beyond a B.F.A. and a M.A.T. from Maryland Institute, College of Art her most proud achievements in the art world was to be chosen by Los Angeles County Museum of Art as one of the top 12 Emerging Artists in the U.S. and being selected to hang with Andy Warhol and Wolf Kahn in the U.S. Embassy in Tajikistan through the Art in Embassies Program -U.S. State Department.
