Junk Gazing Painting

This is me... Sara Jean Armstrong the Art Addict. Welcome to my mind and world of art. My fears, passions and opinions emotionally slapped in paint. I thrive on the meaning behind art, the purpose behind all this liquid mass, unveiling to myself the initial thought onto paper. Whether that be political or personal, I hope you will join and support me through my bewildered ideas. I went to Alton College in Hampshire and achieved 3 distinction stars specializing in Fine Art, and have spurred myself on to express my view and my bizarre passions through my love for art. I like to paint in different techniques completely free hand using acrylic paint with palette knifes and sometimes biro with inks. My subject varies from theatrical faces, dark art with a twist, motorbikes and anything weird or wonderful I can think of in my head I put to paper! I do a lot of pet and bike commissions and sometimes family portraits. Have recently finished a large wall mural at Loomies Moto Cafe, and am now working with a new metal bands to create some powerful images. In addition to this, I love to create my own projects personal to me on the side, such as my new ‘Billy cat pollution’ series. I am inspired heavily by the history of art and the artists that took it further to not just paint a pretty picture, but exhibit an opinion and a change. Which I aspire to one day generate an impact myself into the art world.
