Biography Sarah Graham was born in Edinburgh in 1973. Between 1992 and 1996 she completed two MA’s at Edinburgh University and Edinburgh College of Art in History of Art and Fine Art. From 1994 – 2005, she travelled across the world drawing and painting in Australia, Turkey, Cape Town, China, Pakistan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan, California and Long Island, USA. In 2001 she rode across Central Asia with a travel writer and made a film that the Discovery Channel bought called “Beyond the Mountains of Heaven” and co-wrote the book “Silk Road, Troubled Dreams”. Natural forms and the plant world provide her main source of inspiration. She now alternates between walking and drawing from nature and then working up the drawings in her studio. Sarah’s drawings have a global appeal and have been acquired by important collectors in the UK and USA as well as other parts of the world.
