 A litte more about  me……………………….

Thanks so much for visiting my site, my name is Sandra, and I hope you like my work. I am based in Wexford in Ireland, but my work travels all over the world. I work in various mediums including oil paint, acrylic paint, pastels, charcoal but my favourite is a good set of sharp coloured pencils.  My preferred 'tools for the job' are Faber Castell Polychromos pencils for coloured portraits and Faber Castell pencils for graphite. I'm currently experimenting with surfaces, but I mostly use PastelMat and Watercolour Paper  In addition to those items, I also use a few other bits and pieces, mainly from Caran d'Ache and Derwent.

In addition to my pet portraits, I also draw and paint my niece and nephews regularly and you will have seen my "Back of the Net" Giclee print that is currently available in a limited edition. More recently I have started to draw my little hive of Bumble Bee's, you can see some of the originals are the bottom of the page, I will bee :-) adding more original bees shortly  and then they too will be available to buy as prints, well thats the plan anyway…..

​  I also love abstract art and often 
introduce the shapes and colours that surround me in my everyday life, into my work. I hope to add more of my work to this site soon. I spend a lot of time with my own little dog Scruffy who I rescued ten years ago. He's around thirteen or fourteen now and he's the very cute scruffy fella pictured up above. Although I have a BA(Hons) in Art, I only discovered my love of drawing animals when I drew Scruffy for the first time. I am an animal lover and have been known to chat away to my portraits as they evolve, I fall in love with each and every one of them and I genuinely miss them when they are finished.  I have tried to provide as much information as I can about what I do here on my website but If you have any further questions please contact me via facebook https://www.facebook.com/sandraryanpetportraitsandfineart
or
email to [email protected]
and I will get back to you as soon as I can………

( My darling Scruffy passed over the rainbow bridge on May 15th 2019,and broke my heart. I don't have the heart to remove him from my story) My little crazy Ossie found us in September 2019. Of course we love and adore him more and more every day.

October 2024; Ossie is now five and totally spoiled, he and I are still drawing and enjoying it more every day. I still think of Scruffy a lot, they never really leave you. I use the #scruffydogart in his memory.

                                            My warmest regards 
                                      Sandra and Scruffy & Ossie
