  
After graduating from Tufts University in 1984 with a BA in art history, Koo Schadler studied art history and painting in Europe. In 1986 she moved to California, where, under the tutelage of Chester Arnold, she began painting with egg tempera, a traditional medium made of powdered pigments and egg yolks. In 1993 Schadler established a studio in New Hampshire and devoted herself to egg tempera painting. Her inspiration derives from nature and the works of the Old Masters, particularly the diptychs and triptychs of the Northern and Italian Renaissance.
A master painter of the Copley Society of Art, Boston, Schadler is represented by the J. Cacciola Gallery, New York, and the Turner Carroll Gallery, Santa Fe. She is a board member of the Society of Tempera Painters, writes and lectures on egg tempera, and teaches tempera, gesso, and design workshops. Her works are in more than 250 public and private collections nationwide.
