By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature the second of two 12-piece exhibitions of works by American painter Sarah Yeoman (Born 1959 in Lawrenceville, NJ). 
 

Sarah Yeoman is an award-winning American watercolor artist.
She is recognized for her command of light, narrative and strength of story. Her mastery of reflections, unique surface layers, and unusual perspective clearly set her apart from the crowd.

 

Sarah lives in Delaware, in the northeastern United States. She is inspired by Winslow Homer and John Singer Sargent, and in the summer, Sarah follows Winslow’s footsteps in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State, hiking and paddling in remote locations where she paints and collects references.
 

She is equally at home in urban and lush garden settings; she lives on a private garden estate and draws on the greenhouses and gardens for inspiration, but also finds beauty in nearby Philadelphia and its rich architectural and human vibrations. Her years as a singer/songwriter flow through her process in the melodious and lyrical qualities of her paintings.

​

Sarah describes her artistic process as “sculpting and pulling the form out of the paper,” much as a sculpture releases the form from the marble. Her imaginative and unusual perspective frames her work with the deepest ability to project how she sees the world, formed by shadow and light. Her mastery of watercolor deepens the story and intimacy of her work, as the resulting texture, color shifts, and granulation reveal the warm feeling of light as well as the whispers of light air. As she minimizes detail, the abstract shapes and surface of the paper reveal her deep connection with the process.

Sarah is a new Signature Member of the American Watercolor Society for 2017. She also has Signature Membership in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Delaware Watercolor Societies. She is represented by Gallery 46 in Lake Placid, NY, Abanakee Studios in Indian Lake, NY, and Mala Gallery in Kennett Square, PA.
