Artist Background
Shana Chandler
An artist is always creating. Shana's artistic
background is varied. At the core is a
constant creative energy dedicated to
creation, advancement and expression.
Shana's background includes an extensive
career in graphic design, marketing and
strategic planning. After receiving a Bachelor
of Fine Arts from Carnegie Mellon University
in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (1989) she
returned to her native Oregon to begin her
career.
Shana is now finding inspiration in a life long
passion as a full-time practicing artist. "I am
not unlike the child at play moving swiftly from
one project to the next. I am wild about the
process of creating and the wonder of
capturing and projecting emotion."
Shana lives in Silverton with her husband,
Tony, son Hayden and twins Mckenna and
Cole.
