Sally is a recently retired teacher, having taught foreign languages for 34 years. She also taught Art the last 3 years. Sally came to art somewhat late in life. But, as she looked back, she realized creative endeavors have been part of her life since her teenage years. From designing and sewing her own clothes, to cross-stitch, quilting, and scrapbooking, Sally has been creating much of her life. Sally works in several different media but is most fascinated by Scratchboard and Felting. Scratchboard was a more recent discovery, and her amazement at what can be created on an inked board with tools and inks never ends. Sally scratchboard work often features animals, because you can make them as life-like as you want, and you can play with the values of light and dark to create a very dramatic piece.
Sally's work can bee seen on her website www.havenhillstudios.com and in person at the Cary Gallery of Artists, in beautiful downtown Cary, NC.
Sally's recommend artists are:
The International Scratchboard Society
