A patron asked to use my plague doctor image printed out to hang on their door. That made me think maybe others would like to use this image as well. Anyone may download and use this image as their masks required sign. If you have any issues please email me and I will send you a png.
Stay safe and avoid maskholes.

Cherri Lakey, of Phantom Galleries, Two Fish Design, KALEID Gallery and Ano Domani, had the fun idea to create a
large painting for the entry wall at KALEID Gallery.
We talked about reflecting the tiny imposition of wearing a mask compared to the Plague Doctors’ uniform.
Thank you Cherri and Brian for turning San Jose into a city of art.
The Plague Doctor, by Sandi Billingsley is currently hanging at KALEID Gallery.

KALIED Gallery has had a Holiday show for about 10 years now. During the annual HARK Show you can find creative and unique gifts. I made the Scented Mandrake roots for this years show. They are made of rope scraps, junk mail and paper food packaging. The paper is then sealed with nontoxic glue and paint. As an absorbent layer for the scented oil, I then add an unsealed layer of paper to the chest and belly. This allows the paper to absorb the essential oil and to give the root a scent.
The Scented Mandrake Collection is part of my effort to continue dialog about the importance of living sustainably.
Love your Mother is a painting trying to remind us that if we want beautiful oceans we have to rethink the concept disposable.
It is made of used and discarded styrofoam and paper, and is painted with non toxic water based paint.

Reallocate police funding to keep the peace.
NO more murders of our black brothers and sisters at the hands of the police.
Please save our democracy.
One of my favorite things is to add skyscapes to a room.
This is a close up to show the brush work, also to show how I manipulate the clear coat to create a wet beaded look.
