About The Artwork
One of the magnificent capabilities of Art is the ability it has to immediately tell a story, or in this case raise awareness. Sarah Jane’s Art piece “Hidden Truth” is doing just that with a financial pledge to a very important cause in which you too can help. Every year on the 25th of November, our thoughts turn to White Ribbon Day. A day that was declared by the United Nations General Assembly to be an International Day for the elimination of violence against women. A day that we wear a white ribbon as a symbol and oath swearing never to commit, excuse or remain silent about violence against women. At Modern Detail By Sarah Jane, we are passionate about creating a kinder world and are therefore committed to many causes. However eliminating violence against women is a topic that resonates strongly after discovering this issue right at my doorstep with the chilling truth that a friend had been hiding physical violence against them by their partner. In this case the horrible truth had been exposed, the silence broken and action could be taken, however others are not so lucky and still conceal the truth and remain in situations of harm. This experience for me last year was a big wake up call to just how large a problem domestic violence is in our country, that it is not limited to any part of society that people can hide their scars no matter what their background. This is what inspired me to paint “Hidden Truth,” it was time for Sarah Jane Art to highlight the issue of domestic violence in Australia and raise awareness with a big statement painting standing 203cm tall and 126cm wide. Block colours were used in bright formats to highlight the hope of change whilst the actual image of a beaten face encompassed the entire canvas. Navy paint was used to cover the mouth in an act of silence depicting the reality that many victims are never heard. Although we hope the image alone will spark conversation amongst people to raise awareness, we are aware these charities also need our financial assistance to create change.

I was secretly hoping you’d stop past to find out more about me, Sarah Jane Modern Abstract Artist from Adelaide, Australia. A cheeky, down to earth individual who just loves getting messy with on trend colours to create huge soulful modern artworks with a design edge. As you step into my world, you will discover that each Original Painting I create carries with it a stylish, contemporary format that contains a piece of my heart and soul. I pour every ounce of my charismatic fun spirit into my paintings and it’s my aspiration for us both to: BREATHE INTHE COLOUR CONNECT WITH THE STORY CHANGE THE WORLD ONE PAINTING AT A TIME BREATHE IN THE COLOUR For me, its important to refer the right energy to a painting. With each colour capable of sparking an emotional response to influence our mood I say Breathe in the colour, breathe in that energy! To achieve that right balance of energy I never force myself to paint. Instead I take to a canvas when inspiration and creativity take a hold. Often nature stimulates that flair of expressionism, so you can repeatedly find me outdoors painting the next modern art original for my collectors around the globe. CONNECT WITH THE STORY Now did I mention that I love painting BIG modern abstract artwork! Yes painting oversized art allows my spirit to shine. It permits me to create a real statement piece that draws your attention immediately, capturing your senses with a stunning visual experience. But I want you to experience more than just beauty. I want you to feel the story behind the strokes of paint. I want to take you on an emotional, connective journey with my arts powerful story. Afterall a piece that resonates with us reminds us just how alive we are. CHANGE THE WORLD ONE PAINTING AT A TIME Although I still love painting straight abstract, I have gravitated towards figurative abstract art over the years to change the world one painting at a time through colour, energy and story. Art has the power to speak the truth and create change and I harness that in my work, intentionally always attempting to create a positive spin. We all have a story. We all deserve to be heard. So I invite you to come with me on this journey of change towards a kinder world with your story and mine. It’s our stories which allow us all to connect and this is what drives me every day.
