Sandy Delehanty is an award winning artist working in a unique process to create watercolor paintings. She pours layers of transparent liquid watercolor that wash over the surface of the paper creating vibrant colors and crisp edges. The resulting paintings have a graphic style similar to that of woodcuts or silkscreen prints. Delehanty says she has always loved the old travel posters of the 1920’s and 30’s and you can see that influence in her landscape paintings. Delehanty holds Master Signature Status in the national organization American Women Artists (AWAM). She has achieved Signature Status in the following national art organizations: American Watercolor Society (AWS), Watercolor West (WW) and the California Watercolor Association (CWA). She has exhibited paintings in the following art museums: Brookgreen Gardens Art Museum, SC, Customs House Museum, TN, Steamboat Springs Art Museum, CO, Haggin Museum, CA, Yosemite National Park Museum, CA, Triton Museum, CA, and the San Diego Art Museum, CA. She has also been juried into the Salmagundi Club exhibition in NYC. She has been accepted into 67 International and National juried shows and has had 5 solo shows and many more two person and group shows in galleries. Delehanty received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Fine Art and her Secondary Teaching Credential from California State University, Chico.
