With over 20 years of experience in painting, mixed media, public art, and education, Schroder’s work bridges vintage and contemporary aesthetics, blending realism with modern abstraction. Deeply rooted in the natural world, her layered surfaces and evolving forms interpret wilderness as both physical environment and emotional terrain, while reflecting her commitment to causes that support animals, people, and the preservation of wild places

Beyond the studio, Schroder’s work extends into public and commercial art, collaborative projects and community engagement. Her career reflects a belief that art can both reflect the beauty of the natural world and contribute meaningfully to conversations about conservation, well-being, artivism and shared responsibility.
