SARA

Australian artist Sara Winfield creates abstract paintings of swirled, scraped and scratched marks of colour. The work is a carefully balanced act between psychedelically toned pigment and restrained negative space. The large scale paintings and intimate paper drawings are a curious adventure into perceptible sensory engagement, exploring the meeting point where emotion and colour intersect. 

Sara began her career creating coveted art for children’s rooms, working predominantly in kid’s interior spaces. After years of tumbling through the pastel world she had created for herself, she found her way to abstraction and  landscape painting. Forever amazed and intrigued by colour, Sara’s abstract work is an honest and raw exploration into her emotions and experiences, both past and present.

Sara is currently represented by Greenhouse Interiors.

NEWS

Greenhouse Interiors Representation 2021-2022

In 2021, after returning from six months in Melbourne, I was given the news that my application to be represented by Greenhouse Interiors had been successful. 

To say I was overjoyed is an understatement. I am incredibly lucky to be supported by such a wonderful, successful and encouraging business. 

Rebecca Judd Commission No.2 Private Commission, 2021

In late 2021, was lucky enough to be asked to paint Bec Judd another commission. Her brief was nudes, pinks and neutral tones to compliment the design story of a new build. 

Bec, being the kind and generous person she is, allowed me to make prints of this piece which can be purchased here.

Hello Little Birdie Commission Private Commission, 2016

Mel from Hello Little Birdie reached out to me to create a piece for her daughter Billie and as one of my all time favourite stockists and kids stores, I was delighted to accept. 

I created a neutral toned, special bunny for Billie and loved seeing how Mel styled this piece with all her beautiful interior goodies.

Rebecca Judd Commission Private Commission, 2015

In 2015, I was commissioned by Rebecca Judd to create a painting for her daughter, Billies', bedroom. My collaboration with Bec and her lovely family is still one of the most requested painting styles and I love seeing the piece is restyled as Billie grows.

Kids Instyle Melbourne Kids Instyle 2017

In August 2017, I exhibited at Life Instyle, Melbourne for the first time. Over the four day duration of the show, I met with present and future stockists - making connections and getting out of my comfort zone! 

 

Fifi Box Commission Norsu Interiors, 2020

In 2020, I was invited to produce a special commission for Fifi Box. This painting was organised through our wonderful trade partner, Norsu Interiors. We named the painting 'Trixie', after Fifi's eldest daughter and set about making prints to sell through Norsu as a wonderful collaboration. 

Prints are still available here.
