Studio B Art Gallery Welcomes Guest Artist Sandy Alanko

Studio B Art Gallery invites the community to join its Art Salon Open House on Friday, November 7, from 5–7 p.m., during Easton’s First Friday Gallery Walk. This month’s featured guest artist is Sandy Alanko, a celebrated painter whose works are a perennial highlight of the annual Waterfowl Festival.

Sandy is well-known to art lovers across the region for her luminous landscapes and wildlife paintings. A long-standing Waterfowl Festival exhibitor, she brings a depth of experience and artistry that resonates with collectors and admirers alike. Sandy was also a guest artist at Studio B several years ago, and the gallery is honored to welcome her back for this special November showcase.

“We are thrilled to welcome Sandy Alanko back to Studio B as our November guest artist,” said gallery owner Betty Huang. “Her work has such a natural connection to the beauty of our region and to the Waterfowl Festival. This is a special time of year in Easton, and we are excited to share Sandy’s art along with our own contributions to the celebration of wildlife and creativity.”

Betty Huang will also be featured in the Working Artists Forum Waterfowl Festival Exhibition, part of the prestigious Waterfowl Festival taking place in Easton November 13–16, 2025. This year’s exhibition will be juried by noted Baltimore painter Palden Hamilton.

The November Art Salon Open House is a wonderful opportunity to meet artists, enjoy fine art in an inviting setting, and experience the vibrant cultural spirit that accompanies Waterfowl Weekend in Easton.
