Sarah Baptist – Artist Statement
The character and essence of city streets, alleys, train tracks and such, capture Sarah’s attention when she paints. She finds rhythms in the shapes of the urban landscape. Sarah finds the impact of man and nature co-existing a fascinating subject.
Sarah is an urban landscape oil painter, who enjoys plein air painting. Being on location, responding and reacting to the light, color and atmosphere is a challenge and a joy.
Recently, Sarah has started to use this plein air work, as well as many photos taken while out painting, to create larger urban landscapes and abstractions in her home studio.
Sarah started out as a set designer because she loved creating the illusion of another world on the stage. That morphed into painting scenery for theater, opera and specialty events for 20+ years from Maine to Wisconsin to New Hampshire and finally Delaware. Now she creates worlds with oil paints rather than on the stage!
Sarah is a self-taught artist. She has shown her work in numerous galleries in the area and has won a number of awards at regional plein air events.
