More about the Artist
Penny Santy
Artist Statement
Paint has a language that expresses poetically on Penny Santy’s canvases. Her work is not only about seeing, but
about creating a perception so that it communicates feeling. Each piece holds some mystery that uses the artist’s
experience as a gateway to begin a conversation. Santy expresses the importance of human to human or human to
nature connections in her work, and reference to movement and place easily make a spiritual connection for people.
Santy earned her BFA from Syracuse University where she built her love of working in oils and charcoal. With 38
years experience, her work is award winning with the most recent being the March 2024 Finalist in the Boldbrush
art contest juried by Kathie Odom, and the 2022 Dorothy Bostwick Campbell Memorial Prize at the Cooperstown Art
Association national juried show. She exhibits regularly across the northeast including at Dacia Gallery, New York
City; Memorial Art Gallery, Rochester, NY; Arnot Art Museum, Elmira, NY; a regular exhibitor at Art Haus, Syracuse,
NY, and now at the Gallery at Axom Home, Rochester, NY. Her work has been published in 1340 Art magazine,
April 2018, and Stone Canoe Number 18.
