Sarah Jane Brown

 Sarah Jane Brown lives in the heart of the spectacular Pembrokeshire Coast National Park in West Wales, where her environment and earlier maritime career instilled a deep affinity with the sea. In her mid-30s she studied Fine Art Painting at the West Wales School of the Arts gaining a first class honours degree. 

Since graduating, Sarah Jane’s career as a professional artist steadily gained momentum and recognition, and her work now attracts collectors from across the world. Sarah Jane has shown her work in over 100 UK exhibitions including 12 successful solo shows and numerous prestigious exhibitions as far afield as New York City and Barcelona. 

Notable highlights include exhibiting with the Royal Society of Marine Artists at London’s Mall Galleries, at the Cork Street Open in Mayfair and with the Royal Cambrian Academy in North Wales. A couple of years ago she became a qualified member of the Guild Society of Artists (GSA), part of the Fine Art Trade Guild.

Sarah Jane has featured regularly in the media with articles for various magazines, two television appearances, and several interviews on BBC Radio about her work.

“Our surroundings form a part of us, shaping our perception, and colouring our thoughts and ideals. For me they are a vehicle to describe more internal aspects of our physical, emotional and spiritual selves. Being in a wild and rugged landscape is both humbling and up-lifting. There is something about being immersed in nature that gives clarity and focus to the space within. My approach to landscape painting is therefore introspective and intimate.”
