Sarah has been my friend for 30 years. When I launched Longridge Review in March 2015, she was our first artist. Her work has evolved and so has our journal. I am so grateful for her friendship and for her graciously allowing me to feature her work again; having her back seemed fitting along with a new “first,” the first Barnhill Prize. Please enjoy Sarah’s brilliant, joyful paintings. As of this moment, they are all available for her purchase on her website, as are many others!

“As an artist, I have spent twenty years learning what it takes, staying up late, waking up early, to answer this question—how do I make someone come alive when they look at one of my works? So many people are stressed by life’s pressures and my work is designed to delight, restore, and energize you so you can better manage what’s in front of you.”
