Stella Maria Baer

Stella Maria Baer is a wonderful artist whose work is haunted by the lines and colors of the New Mexico desert where she grew up. Interestingly, she depicts mostly planets and moons on stark, plain backgrounds, but the influence is there nonetheless. She also paints animals and/or people riding on top of other animals. Working from New Haven, Baer works in oils and watercolor and lives with her husband, in addition to pet dog and hedgehog. Trust me, it is worth following her Instagram for the hedgehog pics alone! She is also a phenomenal photographer. Take a look at her work online or follow her Instagram.
