Sarah Hanner Hopwood

As an artist I aspire to create original, emotive, and beautiful pieces of work to be cherished for years to come.

My landscapes are imaginary and inspired by the expansive terrain of the Scottish Highlands and the undulating valleys of South Wales, which is my heritage. My watercolour landscapes incorporate collage from books that have meaning to me, I often use these to inspire the names of my paintings, and I add marks using stitching and other materials.

I am drawn to the natural world as inspiration across all my work, which also includes British wildlife, loose floral watercolours, painted paper collage, cyanotypes and colourful graphic style painting. Not only is the natural world my inspiration, but it also has provided me with comfort and grounding throughout my life
