Sandra Severson

Sandra grew up immersed in the Philadelphia art scene as the daughter of noted artists Gerardo and Edith Belfiore. After studying drawing and portraiture at PAFA and pursuing an opportunity to study with Nelson Shanks, she was accepted to show at the Kentucky Derby Museum and the International Museum of the Horse, becoming an associate member of the American Academy of Equine Art. Sandra’s paintings have appeared on the covers of the Chronicle of the Horse, Oasis magazine and the American Lipizzan Registry. Alternative art shown under her maiden name of Belfiore won her First Prize for Painting at Woodmere Art Museum and the Jamison Award at Wayne Art Center. Sandra has had solo shows at the American Artist Gallery, the American College, and Chester County Art Association. She is featured in the book, The Four Seasons of Chester County: The Artists. Sandra’s paintings have been selected for the 2013 Dressage at Devon Poster and the 2015 poster for the Devon Horse Show.
