"After the storm, she opened her eyes and joined the world in flight. There was nothing that she could not be, do or have."

My newest painting has been inspired by and will be auctioned at the Think Pink Golf Day, Chapman Golf Club, Harare on the 25th October 2012. 
A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the Think Pink Foundation to help with Breast Cancer Awareness. I really look forward to the evening and participating in the event!

"The red dress polkadot lady" 2009. Acrylic on canvas 90cmx 70cm.

  "Lady Chatterley"2012 Acrylic on canvas. 140cmx120cm

The story concerns a young married woman, Constance (Lady Chetterley), whose upper-class husband, Clifford Chatterley, has been paralyzed due to a wae injury..in addition to Clifford's physical limitations, his emotional neglect of Constance forces distance between the couple. Her sexual frustration leads her into an affair with the gamekeeper, Oliver Mellors. The class difference between the couple highlights a major motif of the novel which is the unfair dominance of intellectuals over the working class. The novel is about Constance's realization that she cannot live with the mind alone: she must also be alive physically. This realization stems from a heightened sexual experience Constance has only felt with Mellors, proving that love can only happen with the element of the body, not the mind.

Amidst all of the chaos, Sarah was determined to keep grounded, calm and in control. There was nothing anyone could take away from her with the amount of love she felt for him. She was swept and she was untouchable!
