Garden center gallery features whimsical art by Sandy Wood

September 21, 2024

The Little Garden Gallery at Inland Bays Garden Center, 38320 Muddy Neck Road, Frankford, is showcasing works by local artist Sandy Wood, who specializes in whimsical garden art.

Illuminating flowers, fruit and animals, she paints on metal, salvaged wood, slate, stone and glass. To create her unique art, she’s always on the lookout for vintage material and often visits antique stores, thrift shops and flea markets for inspiration, in addition to searching the internet. Her art can be found painted on buckets, tubs, tiles, and old wooden shutters and door panels.

Now 87 years old, Wood has shown her work in juried art shows in Bethany Beach and Naples, Fla. She was one of 15 artists displaying her work in the Garden Club of America show in Washington, D.C.

Wood said painting always gives her great gratification and pleasure, along with helping her through hard times in life. Some 18 years ago, Wood founded the Bethany Beach Seaside Craft Show held annually on the boardwalk in June.
