the artist

Sarah is a local Hackney based artist inspired by her walks around the Hackney and Walthamstow Marshes. Her paintings document paths taken and colours emerging over the changing seasons. Balancing fine painterly detail with loose gestural mark-making, Sarah enjoys exaggerating her colour palette and infusing her source images with vibrancy and energy - bringing a fresh approach to contemporary landscape painting.

the story

"Nettle Thicket" offers an intimate glimpse into a dense patch of nettles in Millfields Park, Clapton, where sharp, spiky forms push up against soft painterly gestures. Light shifts across the surface, catching on leaves and fading into shadow, blurring the line between observation and interpretation. It’s a study in contrast - precision and looseness, stillness and movement - capturing the quiet intensity of a moment often overlooked.
