Known for her animal sculpture, Sandy Scott first gained artistic recognition for her sporting scene etchings in the 1970s. Moving to sculpture in the early 1980s, Scott used observation and a sense of motion to create works that were not only graceful, but accurate representations of the wild animals of which she is so fond.
