Beautiful, original paintings, portraits, quilling, illustration and sculpture from Sarah Maie Art.
Born in South London UK 1975 and inspired by the works of Alberto Giacometti, Turner and influenced by Japanese manga, Sarah is a talented and professional contemporary fine artist who now lives and works in Berkshire, United Kingdom. She loves to work with colour, light and many different materials.
Sarah's new resin series is entitled 'Matter'. These works express human appetite for destruction and our failure to respect the natural wonder and beauty of the world. It is this very essence which we fail to see whilst striving to find more, to find better, to find what matters. We want to breathe it all in and yet we are suffocating ourselves. We fail to realise how insignificant and fragile our existence is in the universe, how visionary we are and yet how blind we have become and how much truly hangs in the balance.
Educated in London Schools of Art & Design, at a young age she mastered life drawing and figurative illustration. Although painting was always her first passion, Sarah worked for many years with sculpture. In her twenties and after her education she chose a career path to develop her commercial awareness within the corporate industry where she worked for almost six years designing and developing packaging, corporate identity and design projects. Now Sarah works from her home studio and has returned to her first love of painting and drawing.
Sarah has enjoyed just a few select exhibitions and has worked with interior designers in Berkshire and Surrey. She presently has artworks hanging in galleries, private homes, bars, hotels and restaurants around the world. Her largest collection hangs at the Royal Yacht Hotel in Jersey.
