BOW WOW SKETCH SARAH GOODER IS AN ARTIST LIVING AND WORKING IN YORKSHIRE WITH HER HUSBAND, THEIR TWO BOYS, ITALIAN SPINONE COCO AND LURCHER ALBI.
Sarah has been painting and drawing full time for the past five years. Known best for her drawings and paintings of dogs, Sarah has exhibited at Chester Arts Fair, Childwickbury Arts Fair and various galleries around the UK including Bankside Gallery, London, Tullie House Museum & Art Gallery Carlisle and the Biscuit Factory Newcastle. Sarah works primarily in watercolour and ink. She is self-taught, having rediscovered drawing when she studied
for an Architecture degree as a mature student. Working quickly allows a spontaneous, energetic and immediate response to the subject, preserving that initial sketch, those first marks that begin to define the subject. Sarah also likes to work with multiple, careful layers, that gradually build up tone and texture and really establish a connection with the subject, after many days of observation and painting.
