Sara Steele

For more than 30 years artist and activist Sara Steele has given us glimpses of a numinous world that can bring us peace, delight, and inspiration as we move through our everyday lives. Her paintings explore her concerns for our fragile and beautiful world, and through her art she illuminates why we might share her concerns. Working primarily in watercolor, Sara creates florals, landscapes, still lifes, abstracts, and color studies. Through her activism she works to have a more humane and sustainable existence on this planet, and to move those ideas from the realm of possible to that of the actual. Sara works with numerous nonprofit organizations locally, nationally, and globally on issues of peace, ecology, social and environmental justice, human rights, violence prevention, health, and women's issues. Tide-mark Press publishes Sara Steele Originals, an annual calendar; Sara Steele: Blueprints for Paradise, a catalog of her work; and Sara Steele note cards.
