Koo Schadler was born and raised in Litchfield, Connecticut. She graduated from Tufts University in 1984 with a BA in Art History. After working at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Koo traveled to Europe to explore old museums and to study art. Eventually she settled in Florence, Italy where she studied painting at Studio Art Centers International and with artist Peter Foster. In 1986 she moved to California where she became involved in a variety of creative endeavors: a three year apprenticeship with master furniture maker Norman Petersen, work as art director for a chain of natural food stores, and painting studies at the College of Marin. It was under the tutelage of Marin professor Chester Arnold that Koo was introduced to egg tempera painting, a traditional medium made from powdered pigments and egg yolk.

In 1988 Koo combined her painting, craft and commercial art backgrounds to create a line of mixed media boxes, mirrors and jewelry. Her work was featured at craft stores throughout California and the Northeast.

In 1993 Koo returned to New England. She settled in a small town in southern New Hampshire and established a studio where she now pursues, full time, the study and creation of egg tempera paintings. Her inspiration derives from the natural world through which she frequently hikes, and the works of the Old Masters - particularly the diptychs and triptychs of the Northern and Italian Renaissance. She is a board member of The Society of Tempera Painters, writes and lectures on egg tempera painting, and teaches tempera and gesso making workshops around the country. Her paintings are in more than 350 private, corporate, and museum collections nationwide.
