Sandra described the philosophy and approach to this body of work: “When I set to work, I am drawing from my own internal universe, out from my right foot, and onto the canvas. The viewer, by resting the eye on the black center, might envision a portal into another dimension, a place of rest within the eternal movement of life. The action of the circle centers around the still point — our individual consciousness.”

Sandra held graduate and undergraduate degrees in fine arts and art education. She was a proud mother of three thriving daughters and the center of a vibrant network of friends and admirers. She worked in locations ranging from her own Gainesville, Florida community to remote villages in Rwanda, where she remained a beloved teacher, volunteer and friend.  Her permanent, public installations, along with private and commissioned works, gained her a devoted following and an enduring reputation for integrity, ingenuity and generosity.

Sandra’s skill, courage and joy permeate her work and elevate the spirit of her peers and every audience. Your purchases and contributions will provide direct support Sandra's family, and to the ongoing efforts to share her art and message. Please join us in celebrating her bright spirit, work and legacy!
