Where Artists and Lovers of Art Meet!

Featured Artist

Sandra Temple's Gallery

Sandra Temple

For as long as I can remember I have always considered myself an artist. Born in England but now Australian, I have been a professional artist, illustrator and author for over 35 years, and a body painter for 6 years. I have travelled the world gaining skills and experiences to complement my artistic abilities.

In fact everything I do is animal or art related so becoming a wildlife artist seems to have been my fate.
I paint and draw in all mediums and although I accept commissions for other subjects, threatened and endangered flora and fauna remain the subjects closest to my heart. 

Working from my own sketches, photos and from life gives me a personal insight into the subjects I paint. Being self taught I have no problems mixing mediums and I love teaching and sharing my expertise with students and workshop participants. Always using the highest quality materials is important to me, I put so much time and effort into each artwork I need to know that it can be appreciated for many generations.
