Allen, Sandra
Sandra Allen studied art at East Sydney Technical College (?), but put her career on hold while her priorities became stick-picking, branding, and looking after husband and children. Sandra has lived most of her life in the Roma area, and has a love of, and rapport with, all aspects of bush life.
She has an off centre approach to her art, always surprising with a concept from out of left field. Sandra’s lively work is partly done with her hands, and finished by brush. Her paintings often are ironic interpretations of her experiences. Her love of faces and places, and the animals and birds she lives amongst provides her with her subject matter. Don’t be surprised if the innate sense of humour in her work elicits an unintentional belly laugh!
