Write a commentLakeside Artisans, 191 West First Street in Oswego, proudly announces that the Artist of the Month for August is Sandy (Elizabeth) Clift, a retired teacher who resides in Fulton, NY.
After retiring she returned to SUCO to study art. Since beginning to show her art in 2002, her work has been exhibited in local, regional, national and international shows.
Clift will be demonstrating her unique approach to creating mixed media art on Thursday, August 27, from 5-7pm during the Farmers‘ Market.
Sandy’s work reflects her life-long interest in nature. As an elementary teacher, she and her students worked with many materials to make dioramas, posters and collages. Today, she uses similar materials such as newsprint, magazines, tissue paper, rubber stamps and stencils to create surfaces on which she paints flowers, fruit, vegetables, animals, and toys, etc . She combines an abstract surface with a realistically rendered painting.
Presently Sandy’s work is exhibited at Lakeside Artisans in Oswego, NY and at True North Gallery in Hamilton, Mass.
Lakeside Artisans is open from 10am to 6pm Monday through Saturday, Thursday during the Farmers’ Market till 8pm, and Sunday from noon to 4pm.
