Testimonials
"Sarah did an amazing job capturing all that is special about the house my mother has lived in for more than
40 years. She worked from photos taken at different time periods, each showing a particular feature we wanted to include.
She even accepted the lilly of the valley I pulled from my own yard and painted them just where they belong in the portrait.
Sarah created the perfect home portrait, which my mother is so happy to have."

"Sarah is a talented artist who brings a keen eye to her high-quality illustrations. Her flexibility in both art medium and professional commitment presents Sarah's ability to serve a collection of clients, making her my first choice for illustration projects.
I have worked in collaboration with Sarah on a number of commercial illustration projects but my most
favorite experiences have been personal. She created an idyllic, wonderful watercolor painting of my Berkshire home on the
Green River and a striking label for my father's winemaking venture on Long Island. Both are eye-catching and really quite
beautiful. It's a pleasure to work with someone who has a pleasing aesthetic style, who takes time to understand client
needs and who delivers on time. I am so looking forward to our next project together, which will be happening very soon!"

"The home portrait that Sarah did of our family cottage is unbelievable.
After living there for 67 years, my mother felt the need to sell it, and I
felt the need to hang onto it in any way possible. Sarah made this hope
come true- through her painting, she captured the essence of our home in so
many ways- she painted every little detail to perfection while somehow also
capturing the atmosphere. When I look at the portrait, which now hangs
above my mother's fireplace, I can feel the breeze from the surrounding
trees, the familiar smells come back to me, I can feel the wood of the front
porch beneath my hands and I see the beautiful view from my favorite perch
on the top step of this porch. Sarah's work, in one word, is magic."
