Sarah Fortner Pierson
"My work, whether it is painting or photography, always seems to be about finding an uncommon view. I paint realistically, but I love presenting my subjects in unconventional ways which emphasize texture, color, and abstract composition. My hope is that the viewer will find something fresh and exciting about the work which kindles their interest in re-examining the world around them. I find the study of nature to be richly satisfying and centering."
