When Sea Meets Sand

Piece description from the artist

This painting is in the art review section of Conde Nast's House & Garden UK magazine. Dorothea Sandra was trained to paint at 7/8 years old by the sea. She loves to capture through abstract art its rhythms and moods. Like most of her art, this painting creates feelings of happiness and joy.

About Dorothea Sandra

Rogers City, MI

From France to Hong Kong, my art has been successful both nationally and internationally. Known as the "Artist of Happiness," I specialize in floral artwork. I hold evidence-based design certification and incorporate findings from medical and scientific studies to create art that stimulates the release of happiness-inducing chemicals, such as dopamine, in the brain.

In 2024, I had the privilege of being interviewed by a brain research team at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine regarding my art and my book, 100 Days of Happy Happy Art: Evidence-Based Design. Additionally, my work was featured in Healthcare Design Magazine in both 2024 and 2025.

I am also the creator of the Smart City Art Collection, which showcases abstract art pieces aimed at promoting smart and sustainable cities of the future. I was the featured artist at the 2025 SRI Sustainability Research & Innovation International Congress in Chicago. I have also been awarded a 3-month apartment and art studio stay at the Swatch Art Peace Hotel in Shanghai, China in 2026. My goal is to paint the beauty of this magnificent city and its many smart city technologies and sustainability accomplishments.
