Bio:

Sandra Scott-Revelle is a writer and self-taught textile artist born in Sedalia, MO. After decades in the southwest, she has come full circle and now calls Kansas City home. Sandra is primarily known for her Black History Collection. She writes short stories and poems based on the narratives of enslaved people and creates vibrant art quilts for each story. Her first book will be published on January 12, 2027. She has exhibited at the George Bush Library and Museum in Dallas, TX, the Leedy-Voulkos in Kansas City, MO, and several other art venues. She also spent time in the prairie as a Tallgrass Artist Resident. Scott-Revelle is also expanding her Style Collection. She colors outside the lines by creating bright red hair knots, blue cornrows, creamy coils, patchwork, and purple Afros to celebrate personal expression through hairstyles. Original poems often accompany the art quilt, revealing the personality and thoughts brewing beneath each diverse style.
