Occupation: Art Sales and publishing
Residence: Mid-Missouri
Background: Having grown up on 50 acres near the Missouri River in the Show-Me State, Sarah’s heart has always been happiest in the country. Though she’s lived and traveled coast-to-coast and in Europe, she’s proud to call the Heartland home. In fact, traveling has made her appreciate her modest farm in Mid-Missouri all the more. She can appreciate its solace, its understated beauty, it bounty, its salt-of-the-earth residents and its sense of place in a broader context which endears it to her all the more. Working in art sales and publishing for more than 25 years has given Sarah an aesthetic sensitivity to see the farm while her photography and writing provide a vehicle to express and share what she sees.
