Maura Satchell.
Visual Artist.

A lover of nature, I’ve been making art in some form or another most of my life. I immersed myself seriously and had my first solo show in Nashville in 2010. Making art, to me, is something I’m compelled to do. My process is unplanned, organic, intuitive. I experiment, break rules and color outside the lines when I can. Sometimes things go horribly wrong, but occasionally there’s a hint of something magical. And it keeps me hooked. 

I began in watercolor and acrylic, stepped carefully into oils, and usually start somewhere and end up far removed from those initial strokes. Encaustic, casein, collage, gouache, pen and ink, whatever I think it takes to reveal my love of the natural world and it’s magic with those who engage with my work.
