About The Artist
My Name is Sarah,
I am the artist behind Surreal Strokes Face Painting. Art and being creative is something that runs in my family with many close relatives being naturally gifted. A great uncle of mine is a famous artist, I have a cousin who is a tattoo artist in Toowoomba and my mum is fantastic with her art and is a passion of hers since she was young. I like to dabble in many areas but face painting is truly something I enjoy to do. To see their faces light up as soon as they see the end result is the reason why I do what I do.
I am a mother of 4 young children who are my whole world. When I am not painting or studying I am spending every moment with them, You may have seen their faces in many of my face painting photos!
By far being a mother has been the most rewarding and hectic time of my life and I never knew how full my heart could be.
Along with my art and being a mum I am also currently studying.
I am an animal nutt also and have a big soft spot for them, they are also one of my favourite things to paint! Even the scaley ones, though I may be a little intimidated of them and still not confident around creepy crawlies and things that slither I love and respect them all the same.
When I set my heart and mind on something, I give it my all. With art there is never an end to what you can learn and how your skills can grow. I am forever seeking to advance my skills and knowledge with art and every moment I am painting brings me joy. To be able to share that joy with children at events (and sometimes even the big kids!) Is just amazing, Art is something I will never tire from and will remain a passion of mine.
