Sara is the gallery owner and likes to paint using acrylics, oils, pastels, watercolours and alcohol inks - in a semi-abstract or impressioinistic style. Bright colours are the defining marker of her work, and she likes to experiment. 

She has recently started using a Gelli plate to pull her own prints to make collage paintings, and the small left over pieces are being made into bookmarks, fridge magnets and jewellery - brooches, pendant necklaces and earrings!
