About Sandy Dooley

Currently Sandy sells and exhibits her work almost exclusively online, represented by Saatchi Art and other platforms. She sells both portfolio work and creates substantial commissions for both private and corporate clients. Her work has also been published as fine art prints by Artko, McGaw Graphics, H G Arts and The Art Group. Artists statement: I live and work in Kent, in the South-East of England. I work with landscapes, from which I draw my inspiration. The play of light and shadow, and the in-the-moment experience of absorbing the world around me inform my work. I am also drawn by my memories of a childhood spent outside, the visual impact and pleasure of that still resonates with me. I love colour and texture and in my work am always attempting to use these elements to create a harmonious balance. I enjoy working in an experimental way with different materials, I frequently throw paint at my canvas, and work with the canvas on the floor, dripping paint onto it. The spontaneity that gives me very valuable.
