My world of watercolor and mixed media art is inspired by the fleeting beauty of the seasons (and of life in general).
I especially love creating art that centers around the familiar landscapes of small northern towns in the rural and coastal Northeast Region of the United States, where I've grown up and settled in.
I wasn't always comfortable calling myself an artist, but in the past six months, I've created something I'm proud of (this shop!) and I am truly blown away at the support of my community!
My biggest hope is that my art inspires you to create an adventure of your own!

Sarah's Story
Winter 2024
Inspired by my experiences in Denmark, my holiday collection embraces cozy comforts, genuine connectedness, and feelings of contentment.
Fall 2024
Drawing inspiration from New England falls, my autumn paintings honor the crisp colors, historical architecture, and cozy comforts that make the season so magical.
July 2024
Created LLC and website with my first summer art collections!
Spring 2024
In the evenings after work, I took a watercolor class and started painting more regularly. Researched the possibility of starting my own small business and worked on themed painting collections.

Started working full-time as a mental health therapist. Moved from Plattsburgh, NY to Portsmouth, NH. Started a snail mail routine with homemade, painted cards and decorated envelopes.
Graduate
Received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from SUNY Plattsburgh! Most gifts to others during this time were paintings.
Undergraduate
Earned my associates and transferred to St. Lawrence University where I graduated with a major in Neuroscience and a minor in Sociology. Almost finished a minor in Fine Arts! Studied abroad in Denmark and caught the travel bug.
K-12
In elementary school, wanted to be an artist when I grew up. In high school, planned to go to school for architecture. Lots of art shows features, a few art competitions won, an AP Studio Art Exam completed, and a senior art show hosted!
