SANDRA J. HADLEY: September 2012

Website

Happy to announce that I now have an official website that is up and running! To see more of my work, please visit www.sandrajhadley.com.

Art in the Modern World

My charcoal portraits Growing Pains and Buy One Get One Free (aka The Brothers Grim) were both selected for this current juried exhibition of contemporary art.

My charcoal portrait Are We Having Fun Yet? has been selected for inclusion in The Best of Drawing's Strokes of Genius 5: Composition, to be published in September 2013. Honored to be among the 93 artists worldwide whose work will be featured.

STATEMENT

Although I love color, working in the monochromatic medium of charcoal best enables me to express the emotion and light I find so compelling in my subjects. When color is absent, we see things in a different context which creates the opportunity to make new discoveries. We develop a new appreciation for the nuances of tone and structure and can more readily appreciate subtle emotions. My realistically rendered portraits of people, places and objects, hopefully, provide unexpected, enriching and thought-provoking experiences.
