My heart expressed through ceramics.
My experience shared through words.
My Art
My artistic practice encompasses flowing with my intuition, not forcing the creative process when it doesn’t feel right. I create when I feel the flow and only when I feel the flow.
My art is the expression of what my heart wishes to create, the energy I feel around me, and the lessons and experiences I am moving through in life.
I don’t have a preconceived idea of what I am going to create before starting. I create in the present moment, whatever form, colour or shape feels right when I am in the midst of the creation itself.
This feels the most authentic to me and allows me to get out of my head about what I “should” be creating instead of what organically wants to be created.

Wisdom Of A Wayfinder
The Artist
Sarah Martin is self taught ceramic artist based in the Sunshine Coast whose practice centres on hand-built forms, with a predominant focus on coil building.
From a young child Sarah has always loved model clay and play dough and this interest continued into her teenage years through art class. Unfortunately clay was put aside as a non essential hobby until approximately 4 years ago. Here the practice was again taken up as a way to reconnect with her inner child and to incorporate more fun and creativity back into her life.
Teaching herself to hand-build vessels has been a rewarding process and is now wishing to share her art with others.
Inspiration flows to Sarah from nature and also her ancestry. She has a very multicultural background; patterns, colours, lines and forms from Africa and India are an important part of the expression in her work.
Her style incorporates asymmetry, contemporary geometric design, texture and vibrant colours juxtaposing free flowing, organic forms in both her vessel structure and surface design.
