Sandra Joy Perini
God gave me a heart for teaching His word and a creative spirit; who knew He planned to use the two together!'

Sandra was brought up in Miami, Florida.  Her University education was in interior design and fashion design.  She created clothing and
handbags for boutiques including her own under the label Just One You (JOY). 
 "I always wanted to honor God with the talent He gave me."

Sandra then studied oil painting and clay sculpture with noted artists starting in 2006.  She always had a passion for unique combinations of mediums, texture and creating form especially painted relief and 3D sculpture.

From the start painting and sculpting people was the most challenging and inspiring. Her first portraits were of her beloved Jalynne, daughter of her only son Jason. Figurative art continues to be her favorite, both animals and people.

Now Sandra is devoting her time to creating contemporary Christian artworks inspired by God's Word.  Her art has spiritual messages which are revealed on this website for every work is on the item detail pages.  Themes include scriptural truth and the beauty and amazing variety of our created universe. 

The painting medium is alkyd oils which she uses for finishing the sculptures and reverse painting on acrylic sheet.  Other mediums are metal leaf, artifacts, architectural, construction and natural objects and etched mirror.  The sculptures are cast in a composite of synthetic resin and natural materials.

 View Sandra art at Low Country Artists Gallery on Bay Street, Charleston, South Carolina.  Or stop by her studio in Palm Bay Florida where the family does the resin casting and mold making.  

Future plans include making sculptures with clear acrylic sheet and adding metal components to resin sculpture.
