New From the Studio: Parrot Tulip Triptych
I’m excited to share this new piece, Parrot Tulip. I don’t often create triptychs, but these beautiful blooms called for something special.
Now in my late sixties, my work continues to be rooted in a celebration of the senses and the transcendence I find in the graceful beauty of organic forms. These extraordinary blooms in my garden elicited the essence of aging gracefully and gratefully, illuminating the perfect imperfections of the ephemeral, tinged with reverence and resilience.

“Schneider shoots with the ghosts of Brigman, Steichen, Stieglitz, and other members of the Photo Secession standing by her side, lending her work a timeless, beguiling air of memory. For Schneider, time itself is her demeanor . . . Building a bridge into this digital age, Schneider unabashedly flaunts her camera vision, informing it with a printmaker’s devices and a painter’s disregard for rules.” –– Rick Wester
