Hello, I'm Sara
I’m a fine artist living in Los Angeles California with my daughter and our official studio dog, Fofa, (it means cute in Portuguese). My work is created in my living room turned art studio, and in a super-secret studio in Santa Monica CA.
I spend my creative time exploring different mediums. I’m primarily a printmaker but have created collections of porcelain objects, paintings, pinhole drawings, and works in tape. I make art for the process and the peace it brings to my soul. Art has helped me through very challenging times and has taught me slow down enough to find a flow.
Creating community is important to me. I love collaborating with other artists and being part of my local art scene. I’ve curated and organized group shows with my dear friend and amazing fine artist Andrea Shear, and have hosted weekly art making breakfasts in my home.
I look forward to participating in art shows and hosting workshops when the world goes back to normal. Until then, you'll find me looking for inspiration, walking laps around the neighborhood with my daughter and our little Fofa.
