Characterised by fine brush strokes on subtle backgrounds, Sally’s focus is always on the beauty of the horse itself, often observed from an unusual angle. She is fascinated by detail, capturing every expression, movement and subtlety of the subject.
Sally is highly respected for her portraits and equestrian art, meticulously producing paintings to evoke emotions and allow the viewer to enjoy the beauty and true personality of the subject.
Sally has won numerous awards for her fine, highly detailed acrylic paintings. She is an Associate Member of the Society of Equestrian Artists and regularly exhibits in London as well as various galleries around the UK.
