Hello, my name is Sarah and I am a mixed media artist living on the west coast of California. I share my life with two small birds, and have been keeping birds for over ten years. These wonderful animals greatly inspire me, from their big personalities and striking plumage to the beauty of their flight. I love depicting birds in various art forms and it brings me joy to share this art with others.
Drawing is my favorite form of artistic expression. Some of my favorite drawing media include colored pencil, pen and ink, charcoal, and watercolors. I also like to experiment with digital drawing. Though I am impressed by the versatility of digital art, there will always be a special place in my heart for traditional techniques. Nothing can really replace the experience of putting pencil to paper.
My favorite three dimensional medium is polymer clay. There is something meditative in mixing the clay colors for each piece. I have a special love of making small pieces, though I have not attempted any extremely tiny works as of yet. I also enjoy beading and wire crafts. Experimenting with multiple types of media keeps me growing creatively and gives me a steady flow of inspiration.
For this site and my etsy shop I make various types of bird-themed items, such as keychains, jewelry, and coloring pages. It is my goal to offer quality products for fellow bird lovers, whether they keep birds as pets or simply admire them in nature. Though they are my favorite animals, my artistic passion is not limited to birds. I also enjoy drawing and sculpting many members of the animal kingdom.
