Sarah Rupesinghe

Sarah is predominantly a mixed media painter that is mostly noted for depicting expressive stories and treasured moments of human or animal forms with their unique characteristics, movement and emotions, rooted in her deep appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the natural world and beyond. As she paints, writings and inspired songs can emerge as a blueprint for her work. Each piece invites viewers to explore their own emotions and personal narratives within the layers of her work, creating a dynamic dialogue between the art and its audience.

Sarah’s recent inspiration involves using objects and texture to create 3d effects on canvas. She incorporates preserved or found elements from the natural world that often go unnoticed. Her ability to weave these elements into her art creates an immersive experience of discovery and wonder, where the unexpected becomes a pivotal part of her storytelling. The ‘Treasures Within’ series has redefined her creative process, allowing her to merge the tactile with the visual, crafting pieces that resonate on both aesthetic and emotional levels.

In 2009 Sarah felt a strong call to pick up the paintbrush again, she had not painted for over 30 years, since doing an art diploma from leaving School. Her art journey began slowly as a process, through a period of some tough years. Sarah, both self-taught and with small courses, evolved from creating portraits, pet portraits and commissions to exhibiting and selling cards locally. Her artistic voice and style are now reaching a broader audience.
