The club has enjoyed steady growth involving hundreds of artists since its founding in 1964 for residents of Sanford an surrounding Lee County. More than 120 persons now participate, bringing together first-time artists and those with well-known names. Many have works in private and corporate collections locally and several are among featured artist in galleries throughout the eastern United States.

 

During its long and important past, the Brush and Palette Club has sponsored numerous programs to meet the artistic interests of the community and to promote enthusiasm for fine arts. The club also sponsors workshops that bring accomplished artists to Sanford as instructors. Club members frequently work with educators in public and private schools to provide art instruction for children. In addition, several teach art at Central Carolina Community College that serves Chatham, Harnett and Lee Counties.

 

An annual club highlight is its selection of the Artist of the Year, chosen for creative talent and contributions to art appreciation. The artist is awarded a one-person show, among other accolades. The 2008 artist of the year is Sydney Somoza.

Ink Painting

By Sandy Scott

 

Sanford Brush and Palette Club, Inc.

Artist of the Year.

 

Sandy loves the unpredictable way that ink and watercolor play on the paper and adding her own artistic interpretative ink lines make the paintings vibrate with tone and texture.  The final composition and techniques she applies reveals a painting of infinite discovery.
