Crestview artist's tools: paintbrush, canvas and raw talent

Some of Crestview artist Sandra Horne's artwork — which ranges from still life paintings, portraits and landscapes — is on display at the Dragonfly Gallery in Milton.

MILTON — Sandra Horne, a full-time artist from Crestview,  has been creating traditional fine art oil paintings professionally since 1972. 

Her work — which has won numerous awards, including Best of Show and People’s Choice — is praised and collected by many prominent art enthusiasts. 

Currently, it's on display at the Dragonfly Gallery in Milton, and at www.sandrahornefineart.com. There, you can find a range of her works, including still life paintings, portraits and landscapes.

Studying art has been a life-long adventure for the third-generation artist. She developed her own talents but also studied art at Wesleyan University and earned a degree in graphic design. 

These days, Horne stays active in several organizations, entering juried shows and teaching classes, as part of her dedication to art.

She said her goal is to glorify God, and hopes everyone will know God’s love for them and experience peace and joy from this knowledge.
