Sarah Jane creates emotive coastal paintings inspired by the light and colours of Pembrokeshire.
Her work echoes traditional notions of the sublime, reminding us that being in a wild and rugged
landscape is both humbling and uplifting. Using the landscape to describe thoughts and emotions,
she aims to create moments of reflection.
