I joined my local art league and it’s full of the most supportive and creative people I’ve ever met! This pair paintings of mine made an appearance in the gallery during November. Feeling excited about the new opportunities ahead!

We live in a very big city which takes its toll on my nature-loving soul. Last weekend we enjoyed a quick trip to the creek and puppy surprised us with all her voluntary swimming and Mother Nature smiled on us with her sunshine. Houston friends: where are your favorite nature escapes for a quick recharge? I’d love your recommendations!

Opening night at @writandvision of the “Be Like

Opening night at @writandvision of the “Be Like Them” art show was an absolute joy! I was thrilled to see so many friends and meet so many new friends. Let me give you some highlights:
- I am so impressed by the staff at Writ and Vision. They put a ton of art into a small space which takes some creativity and lots of time.
- I felt so loved! My parents came in town and my siblings, nieces and nephews were there. And of course, Chris, was my travel buddy and is my loyal support every single day. Aunts, Uncles, friends, friends and more friends came! Loved seeing everyone one of you!
- We were all excited when my paintings (along with a few others) were used in the Salt Lake Tribune article to advertise the art show.
- The line was so long to get in the gallery!
- I loved meeting @mcarthurkrishna_creates that night. She is as kind and genuine as she presents herself online. Grateful to her for putting this show together.

Pinch me! Opening night was so much fun. Thank you

Pinch me! Opening night was so much fun. Thank you to everyone who waited in line to get in the gallery! Big thanks to @writandvision and @mcarthurkrishna_creates dreaming this up and making it reality.

Come see these paintings Friday March 1st! They will be hanging as part of an art show curated by @mcarthurkrishna_creates displayed at @writandvision in Provo, Utah. Opening reception is from 6-9pm. The show will be on display until the end of March.

My contribution is this pair of paintings titled, “Heavenly Parents.”

This is the only capture I have of this painting in progress. It came so quickly and smoothly which is not how the painting process typically goes for me. Usually I take lots of breaks over many days/weeks/months/years and taking photos of the process is so helpful. I am happy I have this one photo and can’t wait to show you the finished painting.

This little makeshift desk has been a holy place for me the last few months as I’ve worked on a set of paintings honoring Heavenly Mother and Heavenly Father. I’m grateful for what I’ve learned and how it has changed me. It doesn’t feel like the kind of thing I want to write about here but I hope I get to share with some of you in real life sometime. But know this: each of us belong to loving Heavenly Parents! We are each so loved!

Please come see this completed painting! It will be on display in Provo, Utah at @writandvision beginning March 1st. I’m thrilled to be part of this show centered on the idea of Heavenly Parents.

Oh hi! I’m Sarah. Some things I like: my family, fajitas, playing the piano. Some things I don’t like: donuts, matching socks in the clean laundry, carbonated drinks. Some things I want to improve: guitar playing, skiing, remembering the birthdays of friends and family. Do we have anything in common from this list?

Sometimes life sends an opportunity you can’t refuse. I’m painting something new and I’m excited to share more of it soon!

Feeling deeply grateful for my friends and collect

Feeling deeply grateful for my friends and collectors this past week and over the years. Fresh out of college I was making handmade books. I’ve done lots of custom work. Countless landscape paintings. Taught so many classes to kids and adults. Been a vendor at small shows and big shows. Collected lots of “no”s from juried shows. Happy with the “yes”s that have also come. I’m learning loads along the way and I’m so grateful for this journey. Love you all!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: presentation is everything! Oversized mats can make a big difference for every small art work. This flower sketch is available on my website sarahnielsenart.com

My favorite flower sketch is still available! I love the leaves and negative shapes in this drawing.

What a ride today has been! Thank you to all my collectors—repeat and new! There are lots of things to love about being an artist but at the top of my list is “the hand off” where an artwork goes home with a new collector. It’s so satisfying to be part of that. There are still some items left in my shop if you are in the market.
