Sandy's work was exhibited worldwide in countless galleries, collections, and shows, and most meaningful to her - gracing the homes of family and friends across the country. She taught art throughout the United States, including the Frederick Meijer Gardens, the Baker Museum at Artis Naples, the von Liebig Art Center, Ave Maria University, and the Florida State Capitol, among many others.

Sandy's passion for art and culture led her to travel across more than 60 countries. She would photograph people, landscapes, florals, and wildlife - transforming those experiences into stunning pastel paintings filled with color, life, and memories. The process of seeing the world, connecting with its people, photographing it, and transforming it into incredible pieces of art gave her works depth and beauty that resonated far beyond the canvas.
 

Sandy Jackoboice proposed that pastelists in Naples become a Pastel Satellite Group of the Great Lakes Pastel Society in Michigan that she had founded in 1997. Our first meeting was held in January 2002. Soon the Southwest Florida Pastel Society became an independent society with 40 members joining by the end of that year.
