What to do when your drawers and portfolios are overflowing with original paintings?
You have a flash sale of course!
ONE DAY ONLY
Friday October 28th
9am - 9pm CST
All original paintings and drawings on www.sarabillustration.com will be hugely marked down!
There's a new chapter in my life coming, and I am pretty certain I will be inspired to make much of it through drawing and painting. I have also been wanting to play with working larger, which will require more room!
So in celebration of the arrival of our son Jaxon (and the crisp cool holiday season! My favorite!), I am holding this ultra rare sale, marking my original art for almost half the price! This is a great way, I hope, for those of you who have been wanting an original piece but haven't been able to afford it, are able to find something that resonates with you and is within your reach.

All of the paintings available demonstrate my progression as an illustrator...
I have original paintings from ten years back when I was still inking my lines with microns because I feared loosing my lines and didn't like getting graphite all over my hand.
All the way through to the most recent, finished just a couple weeks ago. No inked lines but instead using erasable gray pencil, showing more confidence in my values, and creating far more inviting atmospheres that help tell the story.
Each step in the process is vital for the following step. Without experimenting and playing, I would not be where I am today as an illustrator.

Most of my work is small for those little areas of the house that need some magic.
It is very well known that I prefer to work small, usually smaller than 8x10. I enjoy the challenge and quite possibly have always been interested in the miniature (LOVE dollhouses and all things small). Most of the larger works I create are requested commissions, but there will be a range of sizes available at the sale.
From a few of the smallest....
 |
| "Lime Pixie" 3 x 2.5 inches |
The many in the middle...
 |
| "July" 8 x 10 inches |
To a couple of the largest....
 |
| "Wisdom" 12 x 16 inches |
I know each piece has a soul mate, created just for them.
I pray that some of these pieces will find their match tomorrow. It's bittersweet to let go of your creative works. I am always so blessed to see how the work inspires and deeply touches those who purchase it, but then also sad to see them go. Each piece has a story for me, what inspired the imagery and why I created it...yet when I see them sitting in my studio I see a bird caged, waiting to be free and serve as inspiration for another.
I hope tomorrow, on my website http://www.sarabillustration.com/paintings, browsing through the galleries, you find that special piece made just for you. ♥︎
Browse the Galleries, then let me know if any of them speak to you in the comments below.

Hello. Thank you very much for the article, you are very good at drawing. With your talent you can safely go to animation or draw illustrations for books.
I agree with you when a person does what he likes - draws, dances, can you do my homework, etc., he puts in it not only his efforts, but his soul. Otherwise it's called hack-work.
And when you see the results of your work - they inspire you to all new achievements. You want to develop, invent something new ...
