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. Please contact Alex McCulloch for further
