My name is Sara. I've been married to my wonderful husband since 2006 and we currently reside in Provo, UT, where he is finishing up his Bioinformatics degree. I was an art history major who studied art and art technique on the side. Our majors are polar opposites, but we have a lot of fun together!

I'm an artist who recently started selling my artwork artsafire.etsy.com. I've been making art since I was 13, when I started by drawing Dragonball Z characters. Yes, I was so cool. But my shading and pencil techniques really evolved during that time and I eventually graduated to pen and ink and then painting. My grandfather has been a painter his entire life and I've always wanted to be like him. We have very different styles, but I definitely got my artistic talent from him. We both sell at Etsy. I manage his store for him.

I thoroughly enjoy colors. As a result, most of my abstract pieces have no subject matter. Or, if you prefer, the subject matter is color. Of course, my drawings and my more realistic paintings will have a subject matter, but color is an important aspect of each of my pieces.

I also work as a marketing and client relations manager at a financial company. It's a great job and I really enjoy my work! Except at the first of the month when we get all the new statements. :)
