Sara Sandoval Oil Paintings

   The aspen cannot be considered a single tree but rather a family of trees connected by an expansive interconnected root system, this connection Is what resonated within Sara. Transplanted here in the United States in 1994, from a small town, Choachi, Columbia. She stumbled upon her passion and talent for nature painting with a small still life of a daisy. As her route system expanded with children and family with a love for the outdoors, Sara Found her inspiration on the many trips to the mountains where she said, “the Aspen speak to me.” Her sons noted this as a slight obsession. The connection to nature, her sons, and her mother who was a poet and artist as well, remain as major influence in her work.Her sons noted this as a slight obsession.
