Watch Sarah Martinez, one of our ArtWall artists this month, demonstrate how she paints these portraits, and create one of your own, at the artist’s workshop at the David M. Hunt Library on Saturday, July 27 at 10AM. Please register for this event via Google Form or by contacting the library by phone, email, or in-person. This event is free for those who register.

Sarah Martinez’s most recent paintings are stylized, brightly colored acrylic gouache portraits of imaginary women’s faces, some of which she gives names and personalities.

The artist, whose studio is in Falls Village, said, “Each time I begin to paint one of these washy, whimsical portraits, I can’t imagine what she’ll look like at the finish. With each little brush stroke her look changes, yet once she’s complete, her face reveals a definite vibe.”
