Sarah Treanor, Artist Mixed media artist inspired by the wonders of nature. 🍂 Significant losses in her life have carved into her a deep canyon of grief.

Sarah Treanor has spent a majority of her life using art to transform grief and trauma into hope and purpose. A spiritual connection to nature and creativity helped her shape that canyon into a beautiful inner landscape - rich with meaning and purpose. This is the space from which she creates. Although she is proficient in many mediums, Sarah works primarily in photography, encaustics, mixed media and writing. She weaves these varied mediums together with her connection to nature and a spirituality rooted in grief. The dance between mediums energizes her, while her intuitive connections to spirit and nature lead her forward. Sarah’s work has been exhibited around the United States, licensed for book covers internationally, and won various awards and publication honors. Her art is in national and international collections. Her two most recent solo exhibitions were shown in a hospital setting, providing healing and comfort for patients and staff. Sarah Treanor lives in Northeast Ohio near Cuyahoga Valley National Park, where she is inspired by a richly forested landscape - so different from the coastal bays of her childhood.

Cheeky ducks on our walk tonight. We brought some birdseed for the squirrels and these guys were excited to get the last bits.

As we grow closer to winter, I’m excited to share my new collection of ceramic ornaments just added to the shop!

​These pieces grew out of my time in Ireland this past summer, exploring ancient passage tombs and standing stones. Standing in front of spiral carvings and sacred knots etched into stone millennia ago, I felt a quiet, grounding wonder that I knew I wanted to bring home to the studio.

​Each ornament is hand-pressed in durable stoneware using hand-carved ceramic stamps, finished with clean edges, and strung on knotted leather cord. After hundreds of glaze tests late this summer, I settled on seven earthy, satin, and metallic finishes—from weathered bronze to mossy greens, stony blues, and warm bronze tones—each chosen to mimic and capture the wonder of the ancient.

​Each ornament comes ready to hang—whether on your holiday tree, a wall altar, or tucked into a quiet creative nook.

​The collection is now live in the shop!

When I tell you certain things artists make hold a magic that surprises even us, I mean it. I've made so much art over the years, all of it holding a small piece of my own inner world. But every now and then, as a maker of things, you create something that goes to the very depths of some world inside of you. It might be your pain, or your sadness, or maybe your curiosity and wonder. When it emerges, it's like looking at your own self as a landscape in front of you. You don't even know how you got there, but you know instantly - it is a kind of magic. And that thing you made, will always be magic for you, and probably for someone else too.

I don't know why it was eggs. I don't know why right now. I don't know a thing other than how deeply I love these little egg boxes and how happy I am to finally be sharing them with you! It's been hard to keep these quiet. They are part of the AVIAN Exhibit with Lark & Key Gallery gallery - visit them to purchase and see the avian-inspired work of the rest of the artists in the show too!
