Sarah is a graphic designer for the money, a printmaker/paper-cutter/tearer/gluer for the fun, and a writer for the therapy (she writes a lot). She is descended from (what she likes to think is) a centuries-long line of creative people: musicians, dancers, photographers, painters, woodworkers, writers, storytellers, and passionate consumers of ice cream. She's also a neurotic perfectionist, but let's not get into that. While Sarah has harbored a love of writing for as long as she can remember, her passion for the visual arts began in the ninth grade. Throughout high school she took as much art as she could until they ran out of classes, and then she continued on to independent studies. In college, Sarah honed her design sense like a finely pointed arrow, but supplemented her art education with electives in a variety of subjects. As a result, she ended up with an artistic vision that allows her to view the world from many perspectives -- not only as an artist, but a philosopher, a scientist, a mathematician (just a little), a psychologist, a storyteller. And this is all despite the fact that her mother nearly ruined her life by making her left handed at the tender age of thirteen months, while waiting in line at the bank. |
