Artist Bio


Bio

Hi I'm Sandra. I'm a non-traditional arist, a mix bag of lived experiences; a Catholic | Jamaican  | Brummie.

I love wearing animal print and I never feel my outfits complete without my signature bright pink lipstick!

My art work is full of my unique energy.

My artwork? It's Surreal digital collage which i incorporate my own landmark and botanical photography (think homegrown Brummie flowers, parma violets - a nod to my family the "Palmers" and hummingbirds - a nod to my Jamaican roots.

My art is pure love, optimism and a celebration of life and our beautiful planet! Why? Because as far as we know, there's nowhere else like Planet Earth!


 

CV

I am a designer with over 16 years’ experience in the contour industry, specialising in lingerie and swimwear, with work presented for high-profile clients, including at New York Fashion Week.

With a background spanning textile design, graphic design, photography, and fine art, my practice brings these disciplines together through digital collage, shaping a considered and original visual language.
