Sarah Smelser Art
Utilizing transparent veils of color and thin Asian papers, Sarah Smelser creates prints with an abstract sensibility that are informed by drawing and that reference cartography, the body, cycles in nature, and mundane objects.
Smelser has had solo exhibitions at Bridgewater/Lustberg & Blumenfeld in New York City, Kathryn Markel Fine Arts in New York City, Urban Institute for Contemporary Art in Grand Rapids, Carnegie Mellon University, Bradley University, University of Wyoming, Diablo Valley College, Luther College and Spencer College. Her work is included in the collections of the Library of Congress, Ballinglen Museum of Contemporary Art, JP Morgan Chase Art Collection, Reader’s Digest Association, New York Public Library, the Zimmerli Museum at Rutgers University and the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp. The artist received her BA from University of California at Santa Cruz, and her MA and MFA from the University of Iowa.
Smelser’s art has been included in many invitational and juried shows, and been shown at numerous art fairs including Art Frankfurt, Estampa, EXPO Chicago, the Affordable Art Fair NYC, Art Miami, Red Dot Art Fair in New York and Miami, Art Santa Fe, Art Chicago, EDITION Chicago, Boston Print Fair, Baltimore Contemporary Print Fair, Editions/Artists’ Book Fair, and the Los Angeles Art Show.

Leaf Ocean - Leaves in Blue Ocean Large Cyanotype Woodcut Monotype
By Katherine Warinner
Located in Morgan Hill, CA
"Leaf Ocean" is a dramatic cyanotype and woodcut monoprint with contrasting layers and objects abstracted from nature. Black, silver, and white leaves float on top of a watery background.
