The current display art area at the Idaho State University Oboler Library will feature art by Sandra Greba through June 30.

Recognized for her botanical accuracy, she is a self-taught artist who strives to capture the intricate details and fragile beauty inherent in flowers and birds.

Work by GrebaGreba was born in the kitchen of quarters No. 5, Gulkana Airfield, Alaska. She spent her early childhood in the rural parts of the state, in places such as Kotzebue and Aniak. She then moved to Oklahoma City where she completed her schooling and worked as a florist and bridal consultant.

Sandra returned to Alaska in 1980 and currently resides in Sitka where she paints and operates a bed and breakfast named after her daughter, Hannah.

“There is such a wonderful order and endless variety in God’s creation,” she said. “Living in Southeast Alaska has provided me with years of inspiration and it is my hope that my work reflects my love of its natural beauty.”
