Sandy Byers, award winning Whidbey Island artist of oils pastels and acrylics

A WHIDBEY ISLAND, WASHINGTON ARTIST ~ OILS PASTELS ACRYLICS

ORIGINAL PAINTINGS

I want to paint those things which cause a sudden and constant lump in my throat, a thought that won't go away or an image that swirls around in my mind's eye until it can finally come to life on the easel.

Art makes the world a better, more peaceful, place and I am proud to be part of it.

~ Sandy Byers

Soft Pastels Just the sound of pastels touching a sanded surface is enough to put me in another world. The immediacy of their color and the pureness of their pigment demand an artist's respect. They definitely have gained mine.
