Sarah Harvey - Ripples and Swirls.

Sarah Harvey was born in London in 1981. She completed her education at Chelsea School of Art and Newcastle University, graduating in 2004. She has a studio at the Bow Arts Trust in East London.

She does exactly what I like most about being an artist, she paints what it means to be UNIQUE. She says of her work, "I am greatly influenced by Francis Bacon's Carcass and crucifixion paintings, and of course by the work of Jenny Saville. Both of these figurative artists are intensely intrigued by the imagery of flesh - in both ugly and magnificently beautiful ways."  

Here are a few of the paintings from her RIPPLES AND SWIRLS collection.
