When creating her work, Sandi Seltzer Bryant states that she "embrace[s] the abstract expressionistic genre, while drawing inspiration from the Dutch Masters, Brahm van Velde, The New York School, and all of the 'isms'. This work is best expressed with mixed media, on canvas, paper and board, in both small and large formats." In each of her series, Bryant reflects on the experiences that make up the current stage of her life journey. These works are marked by a change in palette and more direct reference to landscape. Making art becomes about visions as they build, layer upon layer, over time. As Sandi paints, the work takes on a life of its own. Each painting feeds off of the previous, creating a dialogue. Once complete, the whole body of work extends that dialogue to include the viewer, bringing their own interpretation.
