Hi, I'm Sara.

I'm an artist from San Jose, California, and Hartselle, Alabama, currently located in Baltimore, Maryland. I earned my Master’s degree in Ceramics from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania and my Bachelor’s degree in Studio Art from the University of South Alabama. I have exhibited my work in over 70 exhibitions nationally and have been published in Ceramics Monthly and in “500 Figures in Clay, Volume 2” by LARK Books. I have been a resident artist at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts’ “Pentaculum,” at Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts as a Kiln God Award recipient, and at Baltimore Clayworks as the 2016 – 2017 Lormina Salter Fellow. I make work out of my home studio in Northeast Baltimore, am married to my best friend, and a roommate of an opinionated feline.

My artwork explores my notions about life through the creation of illustrated porcelain paintings and sculptures. Using figures, flowers, symbolism, and domestic scenery, I present personal themes of identity, femininity, and mental health to discuss what are ultimately universal experiences. I illustrate open narratives and invite viewers to imagine their own stories and relationships.
​
I draw inspiration from historical artworks and tales, contemporary illustration and animation, domestic scenery, and personal experiences. Flowers also play a large role in my work. They have rich historical correlations to communication and mental health, and brief, beautiful life cycles, mimicking our own. They are a reminder to appreciate life and acknowledge death. Themes like life, longing, love, fragility, strength, and otherness have been depicted in art throughout history, and motivate my work as well. I hope my artwork causes viewers to pause, reflect, and relate.
