Sarah Stockstill Art Prints

Sarah Stockstill is a prolific artist whose inspiration comes from a career steeped in photography and the humble beginnings of an artist's apprentice. Her style explores imagery that evokes the deep sense of emotional passion that lies within the psyche. Her style suggests an almost longing for simplicity, yet contains a depth that seems almost impossible to grasp. The rich colors beg for attention by being simply beautiful, and at the same time they are covered in a sublime, almost transparent layer that speaks to the hidden secrets of a world undiscovered, one that is even more beautiful than what is apparent on the surface. Born in Arizona, Stockstill overcame the adversity of her youth and found harmony in the desert, melding it with the contemporary influences found in the landscape of Los Angeles. Finding solace in the beauty of a multicolored world, she continues to create work that is both subliminal in texture and distinct in composition that is sought out by collectors from around the world. I am a painter. There’s no way around it. To put it more acutely, the term once printed on the business card of an old friend and painter in his own right, the words ‘Visual Instigator’ across the front of it with a nicely executed soft bunny standing off to one side. The phrase fit the persona of my friend so accurately that on the few occasions that I still run into him, the words magically flash on his forehead like a rhythmic neon stamp. Artist or visual instigator? This painter prefers the latter.
