“Emotion, movement, and beautiful composition are the elements which I infuse into each of my sculptures. A sense of whimsy fun is the first impression followed by the power that bronze evokes and the energy of the negative spaces.” - Sandy Graves Born in Denver, Colorado, and growing up in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, Sandy Graves first displayed her work at the county fairs as a 4-H member. As she continued her education, mostly at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, Graves worked in many different mediums. Sculpture was always a favorite and came naturally to her. Graves sees bronze sculpture as being a friendly and beautiful medium. She enjoys 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.
