Sally Mc Gill studied Interior design at the London College of Furniture from 1969 –1972 and Clothing Technology at the London College of Fashion from 1976 – 1978. From 1990 onwards she took courses in life drawing, painting and etching.
Sally has always been fascinated by patterns , especially those found in nature, numbers and music and has been looking at fractals, the geometry of natural shapes that are repeated at different scales such as coastlines, clouds and mountain ranges. In her recent work she has been experimenting with collage, in some cases using fabric as an extra layer before priming, in others using cut or torn painted paper on top of the painted layer.
