SKY ARTS Portrait Artist of the Year 2020 Semi Finalist. I’m based in sunny Leicestershire and started pet portraits 15 years ago. If I’m not painting I am studying texture and light and thinking “How could I create that with paint?” I adore painting dogs, there is nothing that compares to the bond people have with their dogs and the love that is given back in return. I’ve won several awards for my oil portraits. I find oil paints give great depth and softness to the piece. I paint with the smallest paint brush and cut off half of the hairs to get the finest detail possible.

What others say about Sarah
Just a few lines to say how thrilled I am with our portrait of Dora. Sarah’s attention to detail and subtle but rich colour palette captured Dora’s personality (intelligent and energetic, very cute) perfectly. It was the ideal birthday present for my wife who loved it. View this artist

Thank you so much for the painting of Fred, my wife loved it. The portrait exceeds our expectations. It is a fantastic likeness and has captured his character. We don’t know how much longer we’ll have him, but will always have a part of him. View this artist
