SARAH PLATT

Sarah Platt and her Art
Sarah is an established full time New Zealand artist, painting and publishing since 2002.
Self-taught, Sarah brought a naive freshness to her work, with a trademark clarity of colour and
form. She is known for her designed representations of our loved towns and cities. Most people in
the Manawatu and surrounding regions, are familiar with Sarah Platt’s work. It is an iconic part of
the culture with her work hanging on walls all around the world.
As the years have progressed, she has opted to concentrate purely on the landscapes that ‘make her
heart sing’. Though her style has changed drastically over the years, her love for colour, clarity, and
her dedication to detail, can still be seen in her work.
Sarah says of her work, ‘These paintings are about beauty and deep calling to deep. Each scene has a
presence of its own, slowing my heart beat down and making me breathe.’
