Created with love, produced with intent.

Summer Doss is an oil painter and designer based out of Flagstaff, Arizona. Her work, in the studio and in the field, centers around the fundamental belief that experiences out of doors have the power to remind us of our inextricable connection to nature, our shared humanity, our resilience, and our capacity for fun. Through her art, Summer hopes to enable her audience to reconnect with outdoor experiences and core beliefs of their own. Summer is a lover of water in all of its forms, the smell of ponderosa pine trees, creature comforts, and good ol-fashioned suffer fests.

Summer received her BFA in Communication arts from VCUarts in 2020. She graduated from Lyme Academy of Fine Arts through the Core Drawing and Painting program in 2026. She now lives and works in Flagstaff, Arizona.
