From 2010 to 2019, she was founder and program director of SummerVision DC for NAEA-a 4-day intensive, museum-based boot camp experience that drew more than 320 national and global participants into an evolving professional learning community. In 2015, Renee led one session of SummerVision at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas, where, that summer, she also helped launch NAEA's School of Art Leaders by serving as a consultant on the planning team as well as program leader-guide. Now retired from university teaching, Renee was a professor of art education at George Mason University (2004-2014) and Maryland Institute College of Art (1990-2003). She holds a PhD and MA in art education from The Ohio State University. Coauthor of two books on gender issues, Renee has published numerous articles, book chapters, and art curricula. Her research and teaching interests include visual fitness, studio pedagogy, museum education, and the professional development of teachers for leadership and impact. Renee's awards include the NAEA 2019 Lowenfeld Award, 2015-2016 Distinguished Lecturer in Art Education at Miami University, and 2013 NAEA National Art Educator, for her leadership and scholarship. Sandell's Form+Theme+Context(FTC) methodology as a Balanced Way of Seeing uses FTC Palettes to deepen meaningful engagement in decoding as well as encoding art and ideas. An exhibiting artist, Sandell uses her Marking & Mapping approach in hands-on, Visual Fitness "workouts" designed to nurture envisioning skills for individuals within professional development programs, cultural organizations, health spas, businesses, and other venues.
