A Life in Art: Meet the Artist Sandra Dovberg
Join us at Reston Art Gallery for a special "Meet the Artist" event featuring acclaimed local artist Sandra Dovberg and her inspiring exhibit, A Life in Art.
Visitors will enjoy a diverse array of artworks—from realistic paintings to abstract compositions, sculptures, ceramics, three-dimensional wall hangings, art objects, and one-of-a-kind handmade jewelry designs.
Sandra’s artistic process is inspired photographs, newspaper clippings, and various media, blending realism with abstraction. But her the most important inspiration arises from her imagination. Her work includes collage, oil, watercolor, acrylic, stamping, ink, and print making. “When I paint, I explore a wide range of subjects—from abstract compositions to people and waterscapes, which I especially love,” she shares. “There’s a combination of experiences that go into my work. I’m not doing photo realism by any stretch. My work is an ongoing exploration of composition, line, texture, and color. Some view my paintings as abstract expressionism, but much of it defies categorization.
In addition to traditional materials, Sandra creatively incorporates unconventional items like buttons, paper, sequins, and metals to create stunning three-dimensional pieces. Her work has received many awards in Reston, including Best in Show at the Reston Community Center for her collage Flight of Fancy, which features whimsical components created by a technique that transforms magazine photographs into abstract color fields.

Reston Art Gallery is open Saturdays from 10 AM to 5 PM and Sundays from 12 PM to 5 PM.
