Bio

I absolutely adore art from all over the world and I’ve been thinking for a while now: How can I as an artist connect with people who would like an original painting like mine on their walls to add a certain feeling to their beloved space.

Art should be for everyone, right, so everyone should have all sorts of paintings in their house to make themselves feel good.

A painting isn't just depicting something of beauty or interest, a painting is so much more.

... Dive in and explore...
wander around and sit down to rest somewhere, when it's time to do nothing but stare...

A painting can be used to evoke all kinds of feelings.

A painting like music can make us feel anything we want to feel.

That's what paintings are for, like books where the words carry you to a distant place. Perhaps you’ve never seen anything like it before. Perhaps something comforting and reassuring or something that gets your thinking going.

Art is life not just a lifestyle. And Art is brilliant.

Official Bio

Having always known that she was here to live a meaningful life, Ursula Sandys decided in her late youth to do something worthwhile and leave full time employment to have a go at learning how to express feelings as an actress. She started to perform in plays and in-house productions at the Elisabeth Buehne and the “Toi-Haus children and youth theatre” in Salzburg, Austria.
Working part time in the “Mozarteum” she got involved with visual artists who collaborated with the theatre through many workshops and plays. At the Toy House she played in experimental performances and took workshops, e.g. Pantomime, Commedia dell'Arte, relaxation techniques such as Feldenkrais and Thai Chi.

When she got married in 1993 she moved to England, where she now lives with her English family. Her background in experimental theatre eventually led to finding another artistic outlet in painting.

Chaos and Control

Acrylic on canvas

30 X 24 X 1 inch

Crisscrossing lines of intense purples and invigorating blues create a lively network, guiding the viewer through a maze of color and form. Rich hues intersect with soft pastels, bringing dimension to the textured surface. Amid this arrangement, delicate strokes of yellow and orange peek forth, offering subtle contrast and energy. The artist’s voice resonates through the playful yet deliberate brushwork, suggesting a conversation between chaos and control. Such fluid movement within the work prompts consideration of contemporary life's complexities and contradictions. These expressive elements challenge conventional perspectives, urging a fresh look at the world surrounding us.

Moody Dragon

Acrylic on canvas

30 X 24 X 1 inch

The image depicts a landscape in the hills. Prominent color tones throughout the artwork include deep blues of wisdom and protective turquoise. Powerful purples, and the pride that burnt orange might evoke are contrasted with the innocence of pale pink, using the connective powers of light and dark greens to depict a serene and dreamy atmosphere. The use of abstract shapes and a harmonious color palette soften the overall impression of the image. The dragon, although associated in Christian culture as a monster like figure, is comfortably nestled in the hills, evoking emotions of being intuitively powerful. Using the dragon, the darkness in the sky and a dreamlike aesthetic, the piece explores the gap between reality, appearance and being.

Into the Distance

Acrylic on canvas

30 X 24 X 1 inch

A serene paradox emerges from the mixture of soft pastel hues and bold strokes in this seascape, prompting a meditative exploration of color and form. Swirls of lavender and mellow yellow interact in a tranquil setting reminiscent of the Impressionist movement's nuanced skies and peaceful vistas. This calming effect does not diminish the underlying energy present in the brushwork, linking the piece to broader themes of nature's gentle yet persuasive influence. As one navigates this peaceful environment, a lingering question arises: What emotions does this tranquil expanse of color and light awaken within the viewer?

Solitary Beach

Acrylic on canvas

30 X 24 X 1 inch

This image was inspired by a holiday in Barmouth, North Wales, catching our dog sitting on the beach taking it all in. Tessa is looking out towards the sea, enhancing a sense of solitude and contemplation. The beach features a mix of sandy areas with yellow ochre hues lending the image a vivid vibrancy with the glowing light of the sun, a vibrant warmth and optimism. The long grassy areas are layered in an experimental dabbing sort of way to create a blade like sharpness and mottled effect. Above the horizon, the sky transitions from a vivid pink, evoking feelings of comfort, warmth and hope to a vivid blue, adding to the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere evoked by the pastel colors used throughout the scene. This setting conveys a strong feeling of relaxation and peacefulness.

Dog Picnic

Acrylic

In this vivid depiction, the primary focus is on two central dachhunds. These dogs are positioned over a patch of grass, hinting at an interaction between them and the landscape. The background of the scene is composed of a landscape, with bold elements like a redish pink sky. A prominent feature in the foreground is a white blanket, adorned with white and blue sections. This landscape transitions through a palette of colors, with the sky changing from gold in the top left and bottom right corners to a mix of pink-purple on the top right and blue at the bottom. The entire scene is imbued with a yellow-green hue, lending an otherworldly atmosphere to the composition. This painting melds the natural with the fantastical, using color and form to create a contemplative space that invites the viewer to delve into its layered meanings.

Polar

Acrylic

30 X 24 X 1 inch

With a sweeping vista of swirling blues and whites, this creation embodies the fluidity of icy landscapes. The soft, undulating forms express the serenity of frozen hills and melting waters.

This artwork resonates with elements reminiscent of Impressionism, portraying the ephemeral beauty of nature's quiet moments. In a modern context, it highlights environmental awareness through its depiction of the polar bear’s delicate habitat. Looking forward, it prompts thought on the preservation of natural wonders and how future generations might perceive this connection between art and ecological consciousness.
