Artist Biography

Mia Schulte was born by US military parents in Turkey and grew up in a family that traveled and lived in many countries, in Europe and the Middle East. Her careers have ranged from corporate work in Washington, D.C. to Art Teacher to full time artist. She moved to Washington State 16 years ago, and currently resides in Olympia, Washington. Inspired by the natural beauty of the state, she incorporates the beauty of natural forms in her abstract compositions.

 

Her art has been shown in exhibitions throughout the state since 2007.

Her work has been shown in the Washington Center for the Performing Arts, Seattle Design Center, Bellevue Art Museum, Tacoma Community College Gallery as well as galleries and exhibitions in Seattle, Bellingham, Edmonds, Bellevue, Yakama and other cities throughout the state and in Oregon (Coos Art Museum and Cannon Beach).
