Signed by nature: One day when I put my easel up in my wildflower garden, got my paints and brushes out and looked at the perfection and purity of nature itself, I thought: "Who am I kidding!? I cannot do this any better than her!" So, I gently positioned the canvas behind the living flowers and simply took the picture. Sandy Lane Art: As a self taught artist, I am deeply inspired by nature. It's vastness, turbulence, purity, circulation, atmospheres and diversity and coherency in shape, color and depth, intuitively drives my brush poetically on the canvas. That way expressing the profound movements in my soul to learn new insights and awareness.
