On a more personal note, Sandy is a wife of 30 years to a U.S. Air Force Veteran and mom to three amazing young men, ages 28, 27, and 26.

Through her husband’s 22-year military service, they have been fortunate to travel the world and live in some amazing countries like Japan, Iceland and England.

When she became a military wife 30 years ago, she started making gifts for family and friends as a way to save money. One of the first things she painted were Japanese warrior shirts using fabric paint and eventually started selling them at the base gift shop. When they moved to Iceland, she painted ornaments, plates and mugs and sold them through the base USO. When next stationed in England, she painted ornaments with English cottages, telephone boxes, local castles, and village signs, selling them at the annual bazaars. she also created unique ceramic pieces to accompany customers China sets.

She loves learning new things that help her grow and become a better artist and teacher. She is passionate about creating with acrylics, Oils, Mixed Media, but she also paints decorative glassware, windows, clothing, and murals.
