Without explanation her fascination with The Old Masters commenced by the time she was nine years old, Sara started to recreate classical drawings such as 'Leonardo's ugly faces'. In 1992 an art scholarship was a possibility but due to family circumstances the opportunity never materialised. Whilst redirecting her work into healthcare, medicine and engineering, her enthusiasm to learn and study art on a private basis continued. Also having been brought up in quite a secluded environment, Sara spent much of her childhood shut away painting in her own bedroom. Sara produced hundreds of private drawings and commissioned work for free, including a spectacular 10ft portrait painting created in the small bedroom of her parents home. 

Her painting 'The Teenager' based on a image by a US photographer who cannot be named, was purchased within days of listing to a private collector in 2002; along with a mystique abstract called 'Oceans.' In the last several decades Sara has travelled extensively around Europe, Australia, Japan and US.  Her work has attracted the attention of television celebrities and actors who own several of her portraits.
