'I love energy, light, colour and movement.’ ‘Every picture tells a story, and some very deep stories will emerge if you let the imagination wander freely.’ 'I’m fascinated by the creative process. It’s like being connected to an inner feeling, yet being taken over by a creative force. That creative force can fulfill a part of us, and can bring people together. Each of us is creative in one way or another.' Sally is an energetic painter, with a huge enthusiasm for working in many different mediums, taking the time to explore and seek out the particular qualities of each. She counts oils, pastels and acrylics amongst her favourites, and has an enduring passion for the discipline of life drawing. A recent convert to printmaking, Sally has enjoyed blurring the boundaries between different processes, and has found the techniques used in building collagraph plates inspirational in developing mixed media paintings and panels. A formal art school training in the 1970s stood her in good stead for a career as a professional artist, and for the last 20 years Sally has worked as an illustrator, painter and art tutor, with work in several high profile exhibitions at home and abroad. She is also a published writer, with a number of articles in The Artist magazine, and a chapter on watercolour nudes in the Harper Collins Watercolour Problem Solver book.
