THE WANDERING MUSE

The Wandering Muse is Shannon Soldner's working studio. It is where the paintings are made, where smaller works are available, and where the gold leaf pieces can be experienced in person. Commissions are available by inquiry.

The studio is open and unhurried. Visitors are welcome to come in, see the work in progress, and spend time with the paintings.

The Wandering Muse is where Shannon returns between travels, bringing back the source material and observations that feed her practice. The studio is the place where those experiences become paintings.
