Sandy Graves was born in Colorado. She began her art career at a very young age, showing her work at county fairs as a 4-H member. While versed in many mediums, Sandy eventually focused sculpture.
She states, “I see bronze sculpture as being a friendly and beautiful medium. I enjoy watching the public interact with art. In sculpture, viewers can walk around it, touch it, and become part of the artistic expression in a very personal way.”
Originally Sandy focused on the figure as her main subject. She considers the figure to be special, because people react to it in such an instantaneous and personal way. Through her sculpting, she attempts to capture moments and memories of the human experience. Lately, Sandy has been working in the abstract with horses as her subject. It is a familiar subject for her, having grown up both owning and riding horses as a young girl.
Eventually Sandy started casting bronze pieces, and that has been her passion since 1999.
