Artist Bio

Cara Gregor is an intuitive painter and Sacramento-based artist creating colorful, expressive artwork guided by curiosity and process. She approaches each painting without a fixed plan, allowing color, shape, and movement to lead the way. The result is layered, vibrant work that feels playful, thoughtful, and alive.

Art has been a constant presence in Cara’s life. Starting with a set of acrylic paints in high school, she's spent many nights and weekends painting around a work and life schedule. Taking clases here or there, exploring what inspired here, and finally stepping into a full-time creative practice. Once she transitioned into her creative work full time, it deepened her commitment to intuitive painting and reaffirmed her belief that creativity is something we all have access to.

Inspired by nature, movement, and everyday moments, Cara’s work celebrates experimentation over perfection. She is drawn to how a painting feels, welcoming unexpected marks, layers, and shifts along the way.

In addition to her studio practice, Cara teaches intuitive painting classes in Sacramento, creating relaxed, supportive spaces where people of all experience levels can explore creativity with confidence. Through both her artwork and teaching, she aims to make art feel accessible, joyful, and human.
