    “You say grace before meals.
    All right.
    But I say grace before the concert and the opera and grace before the play and pantomime and grace before I open a book and grace before sketching, painting, swimming, fencing, boxing, walking, playing, dancing and grace before I dip the pen in the ink.
    Gratitude is happiness
    doubled by wonder
    - GK Chesterton

     Hi, I'm your artist Sara


    About the Process:

     

    When I think of the phrase 'Fine Art' - I feel movement, light, emotion, the essence of the extraordinary in what could otherwise be named ordinary... It's the feeling of wanting to sit near it's warmth and take in that moment over and over again... the feelings of longing, cherishing, waiting, enjoying and being present to the life around us.

     

    I do everything from the beginning to end of your order... I love communicating with you about your editing style, lighting and color choices. Pls leave notes in the checkout and I will follow up with you. This work of art is unique to you.

     

    -

     

    Whether you shoot digital or film, the texture & grain of a Willow Canvas will add timeless qualities, giving you room to explore your lens.

     

    Each canvas has noticeable depth and texture through layers of paint and color.

     

    -

     

    Backdrops are painted on high quality,

    fine art canvas that can be steam ironed on the reverse side as necessary.

  • No returns.

    Canvases shipped insured through UPS for your convenience in a durable tube that can be reused for storage and travel.

    Please track and follow your package to ensure safe delivery.

    Embrace the character of each one-of-a-kind canvas.

    Backdrops will have natural textures from the textile as well as the painting process.

    I can't wait to see what you create!

    Special thanks:

  • I've always loved painting and travel. North America, Central America and Europe have inspired me throughout the years, but nothing inspires me more than the colors of nature itself. Rural landscapes near the foothills of the Blue Ridge have my heart forever and ever.

     

    When I'm not painting, you can find me offering Expressive Arts to women through Willow Circle Art and in my favorite roles as wife, mama & daughter.

     

    Painting brings me joy and peace.

    I hope you and your clients feel it in each canvas.
