Andrea Sauer has been painting for several decades now. She has never gotten pigeon-holed into a particular style of painting and enjoys so many different ways of painting and continues to learn and explore different media and techniques.
Recently, along with realistic landscape paintings she has been incorporating her love of handmade marbled paper, mushroom spore prints, and other media to create rich textures and a strong sense of design to her art. In more recent years, Andrea learned how trauma impacts the body somatically and different ways to move and release that trauma from body tissue. She has developed classes that she teaches at a variety of places that empowers students to use art and their own insights about personal experiences to create paintings that deeply personal and healing. She also creates these "medicine paintings" that explore her own journey. She also runs retreats that are intensive healing workshops along with Sue Stockman, fellow artist and trauma healer. Andrea attended Maryland Institute, College of Art to receive both her Bachelors of Fine Art (BFA) and Masters of Art Teaching (MAT). She has exhibited her work with several galleries and art societies. Among these are the Baltimore Watercolor Society, the American Watercolor Society, the Philadelphia Watercolor Society, The Torpedo Factory, Montpelier Cultural Arts Center, and the Gaithersburg Art Barn. Most recently, her art work was displayed at the 109th Catharine Lorrilard Wolfe International Show at the National Arts Club. Andrea was also juried into the Georgetown International Arts Show and the Philadelphia Watercolor Show. In 2006, Andrea was selected by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art as one of the top 12 emerging artists in the United States. She was also juried into the Art In Embassies Program and has work featured in the Tajikistan Embassy. Andrea currently resides in Bel Air, Maryland with her husband, two children, and three dogs.

During the pandemic, I have found myself hiking and going into the woods a lot. I want to connect to nature more and think this has been a huge signal from Mother Earth that we need to honor her and start questioning how we take the resources she provides so for granted. I have had so much fun gathering mushrooms and creating spore prints which I then create collages and metallic watercolors with.
