ABOUT THE ARTIST
Sandy Scott was trained at the Kansas City Art Institute. She worked as an animation back- ground artist for the motion picture industry before turning her attention to etching and printmaking in the 1970s and to sculpture in the 1980s.
A licensed pilot for more than 30 years, she feels her knowledge of aerodynamics has been helpful in achieving the illusion of movement in her bird sculpture. The Thomas Gilcrease Museum honored Sandy with a major retrospective exhibition in "Rendezvous '98". Spirit of the Wild Things, a book about Sandy's work was published in 1998.
