"Painting gives me a way to express with colors the zest and serenity I feel for life." - Saundra

New Hampshire native. Born in 1952, Derry N.H. Finding my artist calling in kindergarten, I have been painting professionally since 1986. Colorful florals and landscapes of the Eastern United States and Europe are my favorite subject matter. I have developed my abilities through observation, reading and studying with other acclaimed watercolor artists. I enjoy commissioned paintings for a memory of a loved one,s home. I work mostly from photos that I take or that are sent to my website: www.homeportraitsbySaundra.com

For the last 20 years I have also been a real estate Broker with my own independent firm. In the last 10 years I have embarked on a journey and love of glass with my husband Tom Snyder. We create fused glass projects as an art form for both residences and commercial buildings. We have a 2,000 sq. ft. Design Center in Pineville NC. Our website is www.designerglassmosaics.com
