Sarah Jane Brown was born in 1970 and lives in the heart of the spectacular Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Although she has been a self-taught artist for more than twenty years, she finally embarked on a formal art education in 2005, studying Foundation Art and Design at Pembrokeshire College. Subsequently, she specialised in Fine Art (Painting) at the West Wales School of the Arts, where she was awarded 'Student of the Year' and graduated with a First Class Honours Degree.
Painting is for Sarah Jane an intimate way of expressing herself and the landscape she loves. She often incorporates elements of drawing, printmaking, and photography into her practise; these are ways of embedding the landscape into her 'mind's eye' and to 'work out' ideas for painting.
