About Sarah Sweet

 
 
  • Biography
    Whilst studying textile design I found my passion for colour and texture this is something I continue to apply to all of my paintings, using a variety of materials including acrylics, inks, watercolour, oil pastel I work layer upon layer until the painting feels right or finished.

    I am currently working on a collection based on Devon Hedges looking at the wonderful display of wild flowers in the spring and early summer. To see more work in progress take a look at the 'Me at Work' section.
