Collection: Sarah Lees : Painter : Carmarthen

Born in Coventry in 1962, Sarah settled in Carmarthenshire where she gained a BA in Fine Art followed by an MA with Distinction. She teaches fine art at Carmarthen School of Art whilst continuing to paint and exhibit.

Her latest body of work focuses on the countryside, particularly in relation to the visual language of trees and hedgerows and how they fit into the landscape. She likes to pay close attention to surface detail, working with delicate glazes to achieve depth. She also ‘works back’ with imprints and marks to give expression, paying close attention to the finished surface of the paintings, which often have a burnished effect. Working en plein air is an essential element of her process, supporting and augmenting work produced in the studio. She is also drawn to still life and abstraction with a modernist feel, which is definitely a legacy of her upbringing in post-war Coventry.
