To connect with Sarah, visithttps://sarahandreas.com/https://www.facebook.com/SarahAndreasArtisthttps://www.instagram.com/andreassarah/Sarah Andreas, residing in the scenic heart of Ohio, holds more than just an affinity for colors and textures. With a Ph.D. in Organizational Leadership, she has delved deep into the realms of individual experiences, particularly how one develops leadership skills encompassing the mind, body, and soul. Her academic pursuits kindled a passion for understanding the nuanced dance between leadership development and creative, mindful practices.A graduate of the Malian Art Institute Master's program, Sarah embarked on a quest to grasp the nonverbal language of art and its profound ties to self-leadership. Throughout her life, she felt a magnetic pull towards the vibrant world of colors and intricate textures. But it was her realization of art's ability to express ideas too vast or emotionally charged for mere words that truly inspired her. Today, Sarah employs her artistic endeavors to communicate themes of transformation, endless possibilities, and the sheer courage it takes to lead oneself.

The filtration between the brain and the hand. A direct influence of every experience in my life combined towards a single subject. Born an artist. My entire life has lead to being an artist. Creating, exploring and experiencing life and how it affects one’s outlook on the world. Ultimately how all these views are transferred through a medium.Compositions arranged straight from the most powerful tool on Earth, the mind. Paintings are sculpted at a journeyman's pace by the use of oil and pallet knife. Bronze sculptures crafted exclusively by hand, where a thought can become completely encompassed.
