Biography
Sandy is the consummate artist, who consistently endeavors to catch the essence of her subject, be it the pose of a fashionista, a sun-
drenched luxurious meadow, or a coquettish shoe.  Painting is her pulse, and her canvasses POP with provocative color and a flirtatious style.

Sandy attended the Cleveland Institute of Art and has studied with professional artists, Bob Noreika, Beth Ellis, Charles Slovek,  Stuart Shils
and Ilona Levitz, among others.  Sandy has exhibited at the Fisher Gallery at the Farmington Valley Arts Center in Avon,Chase Gallery at the
Jewish Community Center, West Hartford, West Hartford Art League, Asylum Hill Congregational Church,  Hartford Stage, Real Art Ways, On
Twenty, and the New Britain Museum of American Art.  Sandy has been featured in the Hartford Courant numerous times, West Hartford Public
Television, Farmington Valley Arts Center Connections, and Artist Magazine's featured artist.
