August 2014: .......................................... June 2014, Sarah says: "I am very busy creating artworks for my next exhibition: "Dust off my Soul and a cat called Teacup"! This is a new body of work encompassing thoughts & feelings from life's experiences, reflected in landscape, abstract, interpretive and colourful, playful works. I just wanted to play with colour, and explore the more "in depth" content. In this exhibition I want my works to make the viewer smile and feel happy and joyous. I have also included a new line of custom made unique accessories for that perfect gift! The exhibition is at my base gallery (Art on Cairncross) from the 20th of September through to mid October. There will be a Meet the Artist day during that time.

I have another commission after that of a personalised painting. I did a 2 day work shop for people with special needs in January. It was free form sculpture with recycled objects and lantern making & basketry. It was highly successful. It was held at the CRC (Community Resource centre) Biloela. I have a solo exhibition in October at Art on Cairncross, Maleny - opening on the 4th October. I am also doing a workshop in Montville (Art & Yoga) the weekend before, with my friend Rose Hawkins, who owns and runs a yoga retreat there.

Sarah was involved with the Leichhardt Project for around 18 months, in 2012 & 2013. The other artists on this project were Bill Gannon, Jason Benjamin, and Cathy Snow. It culminated in an opening in Sydney in October 2013, at the Leichhardt town hall, where it was enthusiastically received. The works then were displayed at the German Embassy in Canberra. Biloela was the next town to showcase this historic exhibition. The exhibition runs until the end of February, and then travels to Emerald and hopefully all the way through to Darwin.
