- Biography
Sandra Vick is a painter living just outside Edinburgh. Sandra came to art later in life, completing a foundation diploma at Leith School of Art, going on to study drawing and painting at Edinburgh College of Art as an undergraduate then won a scholarship for postgraduate study.
As an artist working in both drawing and painting, I am captivated by the dark silhouettes of mountains and the varied textures of the foreground. Using oils, acrylics, and watercolors, I explore how these elements interact with the passage of geological time and human impact, inviting viewers to reflect on the dynamic relationship between nature and our influence.
