Sandra Whitmore

Sandra's influences are the landscapes that surround her: the Sussex woods, the open spaces and tracks of the South Downs and the ever-changing vistas and light in the Chichester Estuary.

Sandra's gentle but deeply rooted enthusiasm for the very elements of landscape, water and plants, and her openness to explore the creative response, provide an ongoing fund of inspiration and delight.

Before becoming a full-time artist, Sandra worked as an art director and illustrator. The importance of line and drawing in her work stems from the graphic skills used then and in the last twelve years she has combined these with sensitive use of colour, texture and combination of media.

Sandra's paintings have been shown at London art fairs and in Sussex in galleries and during the Brighton and Arundel Festivals. She has shown with Shirley Crowther contemporary art since 2007.
