Quandelacy
Son of
Ellen and Dixie Quandelacy, Sandra started carving as a child and
then turned to jewelrymaking as an adult. Learning from her mother
and father, she produced raised channel inlay work in the Quandelacy
family style, often using the double hummingbird design that her
mother originated. More recently, Sandra has returned to fetish
carving, specializing in the corn maiden fetish, a form that her
sister Faye created.
