    

Versatile and eclectic, Sarah Frary's art ranges from whimsical to desperate, contorted to elegant - her talent is conjured from a feverish impulse and an instinctive intuition. She creates to communicate but prefers that the meaning be left to the interpretation of the viewer.
As an artist she thrives on the challenges of artistic growth and is forever hungry to conquer new mediums and to express herself in ways she might not have otherwise considered. Although her strongest voice is pen and ink, she is quick to try anything she can get her hands on, from paints to pastels and even the art of tattooing.
From a young age she embarked on the assertive path to make a name for herself by promoting her art and her name through the convention circuit. Deciding that art school was not something that she felt to be necessary for her purpose, Sarah is entirely self-taught and found inspiration and influence through simply living life; such as embarking on various adventures in the wilderness, experiencing the delicate and always questionable lessons of the human condition, and most importantly drawing motivation from surrounding artists who sparked the muse in her. It is in this way that her work is most brutally honest and entirely heartfelt in every stroke.
Growing up in a military family gave her a restless edge and she is, by nature, quite nomadic. She developed a knack for wanderlust early on. However, she constantly starves for fresh environments just as much as she relentlessly craves to be rooted somewhere.
Currently she thrives in the wilds of Ten Sleep, Wyoming, having been employed by Shreve Stockton of the Daily Coyote to assist the adventurous author and photographer in a variety of assignments. When hired for the job, Sarah relocated abruptly from the curiously eccentric homestead of Louisville, Kentucky, where she was favored for her tattooing skills, multiple live art gigs and a solo gallery exhibition. In the downtime, she continues to spin the web of art, and with the mountains as her backyard, there is always room for exploration and communion: both with herself and the untamed, breathlessly beautiful surroundings that currently inspire her.
