hank...

They just don't make'em like this anymore. I just read that the newer generation will not care much about classic or antique things. How sad is that.

elliette...

If an elephant just isn't enough, add an egret! I just discovered this great bird. They have an interesting choice of friends, among which are alligators, hippos and yes, elephants.

burt...

My Mother winced when she heard that I was painting an octopus, she said something close to: they are so mean, can't you paint something that makes people happy? Well, if this doesn't make you happy what can? Once she saw Burt she fell in love, and quickly changed her mind about our friends that octopus.

faye...

Sometimes you just want to do something different, Faye is a representation of that. I do think everything looks great with a black outline, maybe this is to prove that it can still be pretty with out the harsh outlines. I think this became one of my favorite pieces because it is undefined and understated. The piece measures 2 feet wide by 4 feet tall and sits on a 2 inch wooden box. { $297 } SOLD

Someone (who will remain nameless) once told me that they used to catch lightning bugs and pull off the glowing rears to stick them around there wrists or neck to look like bracelets or necklaces.

Lou measures 4 feet wide by 2 feet tall and sits on a 2 inch wooden box. { $397 } SOLD

A little about Sarah...

As children our mother taught us that creating something out of nothing is much more gratifying than buying something from a store. I took that lesson to heart. I love to create; painting has been a joy of mine ever since my first piece of art (a Zebra, or a black and white elephant, it is still up for debate). I like to find art in the unusual; a telephone pole, an old mailbox, an abandoned building, and I believe the most amazing masterpiece ever created is the ocean. I am intrigued by the imperfections in art and rarely finish a painting without a black outline.I feel lucky every day because I have an unbelievable family, a husband who never ceases to go above and beyond for me and two little girls who constantly make me smile.

art medium: acrylic on reclaimed wood.
