Sarah graduated in 2002 from Falmouth College of Arts, Cornwall, UK, winning the coveted Pentland Prize for Fine Art that same year. She spent the next 4 years in London, where she worked in fashion, illustration and design in-house at Yellowdoor, Pop and The Face magazines and completed a 7 month internship at Stella McCartney, working in print design. This followed with a commission to decorate the walls of the shoe room of Stella's Bruton Street shop which opened in London in 2003.

Since then, she has built a career as a freelance artist and illustrator, building a client list that includes Tank magazine, OXO, Clarks Shoes, Julien MacDonald/London Fashion Week, The Sunday Telegraph, The Miami Herald, Continental Airlines, The Globe and Mail Toronto, Monoprix, Nicolas Wines, Ford Germany and Ellesse. She has exhibited work in London in 2004 and 2005 and in Paris in 2006, after which she moved to Melbourne and settled into a studio to focus on painting with a view to reaching a new international public.

Sarah's paintings are preoccupied with recurrent themes of gender and gender-bending, the subversion and manipulation of sexual roles and identities; drag queens, transsexuals and gay and lesbian subculture. The darker face of fashion is also an element, surfacing in personal identity, eating disorders and body image. She attempts to portray her subjects in a manner which is non-conformist to society-imposed stereotypes and persistently twists and subverts the preconceptions of popular consciousness.
