My amazing talented friend Sarah Graham the artist, asked me to take some new photos of her in her new studio. She is currently working on the biggest single canvas since her degree, it’s 140cm squared and her trademark sweets are all American this time, it’s vibrant and amazing, I can’t wait to see that finished. Sarah’s work is playful, vibrant and fun, just like her. We had a lot of fun and I admire Sarah’s talent and approach. As we sat on the sofa and I showed her how we could review the images I’d taken LIVE, we fired off a few photos of the two of us too, you’ll see them at the end of this blog post. Budding artists keep your eyes peeled on her social media pages, as she holds fun themed workshops periodically.
EDIT: Scroll to the bottom for an incredible documentary about Sarah and about how her work began and how it progressed plus a frank and honest account about her mental illness.
