Biography:
Alicia Sandy is the daughter of Janice Sandy and Marshall Bobby. She started painting in February 2006 at the Yinjaa-Barni Art Centre doing a short course through TAFE in Painting and Design. Alicia has developed a refreshing style that is eye-catching with a natural eye for design. She enjoys using colors. Her first paintings capture this enjoyment and every new painting exhibits new varieties and contrasts of colors. At the moment she doesn’t restrict herself to certain subject matter, instead she attempts anything at least once. Alicia will continue exploring the world of art and her new found interest will continue to mature in style.
