May Ceramics Demonstration with Sandy Fong Whetstone

Sandy Fong Whetstone is a ceramic sculptor, painter, printmaker, collage, fiber and mixed-media artist. Her work reflects the beauty and humor found in nature and explores our oft fraught relationship with it – our struggle to impose our will on nature contrasted with our efforts to preserve it.

Art is Sandy’s way of interacting, processing the world around her, and starting a conversation. It is often joyful and humorous, but can offer a deeper insight into the human condition.  She offers ceramic and collage workshops through her home studio.

Her work can be found locally at the Crocker Art Museum’s museum store in Sacramento, the Pence Gallery in Davis, and the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art museum store.  Her work has also been shown at galleries and museums in northern and southern California and New Orleans.
