Concha de Mar by Sandy Chale

Sandy Chale has been working out of ECF Art Centers' Downtown L.A. studio since 2013.

“When people see the world, they see brown and green. I see the pinks, reds, blues, purples, yellows. I learned to draw by drawing what was around me. I want people to see my drawings and be happy. Everyone is happy with plants. Everyone loves a flower or a tree. I like to use pastels. I like how they feel. They look and feel like they are a part of the paper. I blend the lines using my hands. I get calm when I draw and I want people to be calm when they look at what I draw.”
