Bio

Sandy is a U.S.-based artist whose work is deeply interlaced with nature. Specializing in field sketching and watercolors, she captures the beauty and complexity of flora and fauna directly from the environment. For the past four years, she has immersed herself in Alaska’s untamed landscapes, using her field journal and sketching tools to document its unique light, towering summits, vast tundra, and intricate ecosystems. This exploration of Alaska’s awe-inspiring yet imposing wilderness will culminate in her first art book.

Looking ahead, Sandy is embarking on a new multi-year project following North America's migratory bird flyways. This journey will involve learning, observing, and creating art based on the birds she encounters and their migratory behavior, with plans to weave her experiences into both art and written reflections.

Sandy's talents go beyond field sketching; she has also built an impressive body of fine art inspired by the sketches in her journals. You can explore her collection and ongoing projects through her website.
