“I mostly paint women and trees,” says Bountiful artist Sarah Bigelow Maynard. “I am inspired by the faces and experiences of a mother, of a child, of an old woman. I draw from my own experiences as a mother, as well as of people I know,” says the mother of three girls.<\/p>\n

“I have been drawing my whole life,” she says, “but it wasn’t until high school that I knew that art would be my life. Color is of great importance in my work, and helps me express the emotions of the subject, myself, and the environment. I love the texture and the look of canvas, and I primarily work with acrylic paint.”<\/div>\n

For the new year, she’s excited about a series of paintings she’s working on based on old photographs. “I love to imagine the lives that [the subjects in the photographs] have led.” She’s also working on a series of trees.”I love old trees that have lived a long life, and you can see it in the branches and the leaves.”<\/p>\n
