About

Alicia Guckenheimer is a local San Francisco Artist. For the past 30 years she has never strayed far from her favorite subject matter, animals. Her love of animals continually inspires Alicia’s artwork. She creates one of a kind photographs, paintings and sculptures, giving the viewer a lesson in compassion and empathy for all living things.
Alicia is an animal advocate focused on the impending extinction of our mammals and aquatic life along with the welfare of our furry friends: dogs and cats. Educating audiences of all ages, Alicia hopes that her art will inspire compassion for all animals. Alicia’s sculptures and paintings can be found in private collections throughout the US and Canada. One of her largest animal sculptures “Unlikely Friends” is currently on permanent display at the Sacramento Children’s Hospital.

Alicia's background in singularly running her own shoe e-commerce website for 5 years gave her a learned education on how to make an online business successful.   Wearing the many hats of this endeavor allowed her to see what works and doesn't first hand. 

After selling her successful website Alicia decided to explore the creative side of the business and started her own Brand Imaging Consulting business.  Her primary focus was developing  the most beautiful imagery for Instagram, Facebook platforms, Ad Campaigns, Websites and Trade Shows but something was missing.

Alicia redirected her energies to her love of animals and passion for art, along with her love of teaching she has developed several different art projects that not only teach technique and different mediums they also start a dialog about being compassionate to all living things. She has developed an after school art program that encourages children to be creative and empower them to make a difference in this world.

Being an art teacher for over 600+ students this past year for kindergarten through 5th grade and a lead art teacher at Award Winning Camp Galileo she keeps learning so much about what kids need and want in their ever-changing world. To put it simply they want positive ways to help and change their world. #artwithpurpose
