Dictionary

“Her work process driven— it’s through a hundred drawings she finds the seed that becomes a painting or weaving”

A symbolist painter from Milwaukee, Sandra Jo Martinez renders works on paper that reference human, plant, and shelter forms. Her designs evoke a shared human experience that points to our connective root.

Select studies, chosen in collaboration with Wenceslao Martinez, are handwoven into tapestries. Sandra’s mixed media series are float mounted in shadow box frames. New explorations use tyvek as a ground to build and remove rich layers of color and depth.
