Sandy Proctor is a self-taught artist who began his career as a painter, working in watercolor, oils, and acrylic. As a child and young man, Sandy sketched and painted what he knew and what inspired him. His love of the outdoors, birds, flowers, trees, landscapes and animals provided Sandy with myriad subject matter which helped him hone his abilities to capture an identifiable essence and realism in his work. His paintings were chosen for many juried shows including Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum, Leigh Yawkey Birds in Art, Southern Watercolor Society Show, and Florida Watercolor Society Show. Additionally, his paintings traveled to shows at the Smithsonian Museum, the British Museum of Natural History, and the Royal Scottish Academy. - Excerpt from the artist's website
