Sahra Becherer (Teacher)

Sahra Becherer was born in 1996 and raised in the remote woodlands of the Austrian countryside. Her early years were shaped by work and life deeply connected to nature, an experience that fundamentally influenced her creative voice. From a very young age she showed a growing interest in fine arts and music. At the age of 19 Sahra enrolled in the 3-year Drawing & Oilpainting Program at the Florence Academy of Art in Florence/Italy. In the course of her studies several scholarships have been awarded to her, enabling her to continue her training in working from life in the realist tradition until graduating in 2017.

Sahra got selected for the „Graduate in Residence“ Program at the Florence Academy of Art/Italy, a year of specialisation in the academic environment. She has worked as an Assistant and Principle Instructor in the Academic Drawing program and Landscape painting course of the Florence Academy of Art.

Sahra is now a Main Instructor at the Academy of Fine Art Germany in Bad Homburg, teaching Academic Drawing & Painting.
As a practising artist, she is constantly developing new works in her studio, as well as accepting portrait commissions. Her works are in private collections in Europe, Asia and the US.
