Sally Baxter has been living and working as an artist in Los Angeles for over three and half years. Her latest paintings are densely layered pieces that blend graphic imagery with the abstract. By using paint and process and matching found imagery with pervasive symbols of consumerist culture, she questions our modalities as citizens in an ever-advancing technological western world. They are also about hamburgers.
Sally believes in the positive influence that creative confidence and developing an artistic practice can have. For the last two years she has been facilitating art programs for 'Free Arts', a non-profit arts education program serving at risk children and their families in Los Angeles. Sally is also teaching and developing an on-going weekly art program with homeless women suffering from mental health problems at Day Break, part of the OPCC, a network of shelters and services for low-income and homeless youth, adults and families, battered women and their children and people living with mental illness, in west LA.
