Sara Bor graduated from West Surrey
College of Art and Design in the late 1970's and went on to complete a 'Post
Graduate Certificate in Art and Design Education' in 1980. Sara became
involved in the London animation scene and freelanced for many of the leading
animation studios producing commercials, TV idents and films, before setting up
an animation company with her partner and husband Simon. After many years of
producing award winning children's animated TV series such as 'Wolves Witches
and Giants', 'Grizzly Tales' and 'Binka', Sara returned to her fine art roots
and in 2007 gained an MA in Art and Design.
Sara has lived and worked in Devon for
over 20 years and is drawn to the remote beauty of the landscape and coast. Her
work is an intuitive response to this environment, in particular the coast of
Cornwall and Devon. Through an exploration of colour and mark making, the work
articulates the mood, atmosphere and energy of the subject matter and
reflects on ever changing light created by the effects of the weather.
Sara works in oils, building up layers
of paint and creating different textures using a variety of tools to apply the
paint. She explores and experiments with a limited palette creating a
unique range of colours for her work.
