Biography

Artist Sara Moser portrait

Art has always been Sara's way of making sense of the world. Driven by a lifelong love for color, nature, and art, she paints to capture the gentle softness she feels whenever she steps outside. Her work is a deeply personal response to the environment, blending an impressionist look with the quiet, peaceful energy of the natural world.


She is entirely self-taught, finding her true creative voice after moving to the mountains of western North Carolina in 2016. Today, she creates art in her studio in the River Arts District and is incredibly grateful that these quiet moments of inspiration resonate with people so deeply, connecting her with collectors across the country and around the world. 


Ultimately, her paintings are an open invitation for you to slow down, look a little closer, and share in the gentle beauty of the world we inhabit.

Notably, Sara's painting "The Path Less Traveled" was featured in the Spring 2026 issue of Carolina Home + Garden magazine, along with the following excerpt:

 

Inspired by her lifelong love for color, nature, and art, Sara Moser strives to create oil paintings that combine an impressionist look with a gentle softness that one feels in the natural world. After a successful career in non-profit development and healthcare marketing in the Chicago area, Sara felt the mountains calling her to Asheville upon retirement. Self-taught since moving to Asheville in 2016, Sara works from her studio in the River Arts District. 

​

While out in nature and throughout her travels, she often zeros in on small details others may overlook...blue birds butterflies, dragonflies and flowers of all types catch her interest. Her work can be found in collectors' homes throughout the country and even as far as Croatia.​​​

Sara was also quoted in Plateau Magazine August-September 2026:

 

...[Jonathan] Bidwell relates some of their journey in the aftermath of Helene. “After the storm and all of the flooding, Amanda [McLenon] lost her studio in the Arts District. I, in turn, lost my apartment in Swannanoa. So, she moved into my studio space, and I moved into her house, and we really teamed up to survive the harrowing months after the storm. Our ability to work together and understand each other's needs has been really amazing. We both survived by the skin of our teeth, but we continued to make our art and expand our offerings.”

 

Artist Sara Moser of Warehouse Studios echoes Bidwell’s sentiments. “The RAD community has been so important to me ever since I moved to Asheville in 2016 and even more so after the devastation of Helene in 2024. I was able to find a new studio space to share with a few of my artist colleagues who also lost their space, and we all support and encourage one another as we go through the slow process of rebuilding.”
