“My paintings almost all come from being outside, surrounded and inspired by my rural location and ramshackle garden. I work in layers of paint applied by brush, palette knife, and by dripping paint directly onto the canvas. Spontaneity is a very important part of creating a painting for me. I should do some weeding and cutting back in my flower borders, but I love the colours of this autumn in Kent. The sun filtering through leaves and stalks is an arresting sight. The gentle combination of yellows, green, oranges and pale sunshine is lovely, and the inspiration for 'Autumn Bank', which is full of autumnal tones.” Discover Sandy's promotion in Artfinder's Advent Calendar - https://www.artfinder.com/sandy-dooley
