Hi! I'm Sara. I paint. I paint because I love it.

Painting is my great passion. The enthusiasm and the urge to create has accompanied me since childhood. Expression through colour and form, and the complete immersion into the painting process brings me joy and reconnects me to myself. For me painting means: surrender, retreat, to ponder and to add my own thoughts on personal experiences, prayers, impressions, what I read, see or hear. I live in Switzerland.
