Hi There! I’m an artist. I create works that commemorate important life events as well as add joy to every day life. I'm here to create the art you want.

I am a multimedia artist based in Northern New York with over 10 years working with clay and much longer with paint. My work can involve anything from a tea pot shaped like your cat to a large painting, or jewelry.

I love working one on one with people to bring their ideas into reality. If you have an idea for something that you just can’t seem to find it anywhere, I want to hear from you.

My work is a fusion of art and craft that blurs the boundary between these traditions.

I attended Alfred University from 2002 to 2006, earning a BFA. I have attended Medalta International Artists Residency, The Penland School of Crafts, Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts, and the Women's Studio Workshop for residencies and workshops in ceramics. I also attended the Vermont Studio Center for a four-week residency in painting. My work has won numerous awards, been shown in various local galleries as well as venues in Canada, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and New York City.

    Working with Sara was an absolute pleasure. Communication was excellent, timely, and professional. Sara captured the whimsy and beauty of my little, unique project. She is a wonderful artist and I would return to her for future projects without hesitation.

    "Great" does not even begin to describe working with Sara. Although I didn't have a large project, she went out of her way to make sure I was completely satisfied with my small shot glasses staying in constant communication. Not only did she make a great creation story but even took them on a little field trip around town and documented the entire adventure. Working with Sara was easy and fun! I'll absolutely be working with her in the future, I highly recommend her!

    Sara was wonderful to work with. She kept me updated through the whole process with pictures and notes. The shipping was quicker than expected and the items arrived extremely well packed and completely intact. The jars surpassed my expectations and if I need anything crafted again in the future I will absolutely contact Sara first. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

    For Ceramic Owl bank for 2yo bedroom?
    4.8

    Sara was absolutely wonderful to work with!!! I had a custom request where Sara recreated a bank (that looks like an owl) from a couple pictures I drew, that go with my daughters room theme. Sara worked with my budget and gave me a great price for the cost to make this owl bank and ship it to me.

    Sara communicated with me every step of the way as she created our bank (from sketch to clay molding to colors, etc…). She sent me pictures as she reached the next step and asked for my opinion to see if she needed to tweak anything before she moved on.

    The end result was a picture perfect creation!!! It was exactly what I was envisioning the bank to look like. I plan to use Sara in the future when I need any custom ceramics. I have already been passing on her information to some of my friends.

    Thank you Sara for creating this beautiful bank for my little one. I can't wait to receive it and display it in her bedroom.

    Sarah was great a fulfilling my request for some unique bonsai pottery samples. For someone who does not regularly produce this kind of work I believe she had a very good go at it and did well.
