Sally Driver
Sally Driver wanted to have something to show for the time we spent in lockdown and began painting from her living room in 2020. She completed a degree in textile design at Nottingham Trent University in the 1980s before pursuing a career in Human Resources in various UK universities and other public sector organisations.
Sally quit her HR day job in 2021 to paint full-time and to find her creative voice. There is nothing remotely precious about her art. Working in acrylics, the brushwork is fast, the colours are vivid, bright and brash. Sally paints what brings her joy, not tied to a particular subject matter.
She is based in South East London. Her first solo show 'Was There Ever A Bud So Fair' was at the Weavers Factory, 13 New Street, Uppermill, Greater Manchester in late 2022.
