My name is Sarah Flenner, I am a painter and sculptor with a background in Technical Arts and Special Effects. After working in the film industry and as a sculptor for Madame Tussaud’s, I turned my focus to capturing the essence of dogs with oil paint and soft pastels.

I’m interested in the contrasts of the canine world. The predatory nature of dogs and their bonds of devotion and fealty, as well as their apparent stoicism alongside an ability to live joyously and with vitality. I use colour, texture and form to explore these concepts.

I am committed to developing my unique mark-making style and continue to make efforts to push the boundaries of my work, aiming to convey both the emotional depth and dynamic beauty of my subjects.
