A native of Santa Fe, New Mexico, Sarah Siltala was born into a family of professional artists. True to her background, she has a strong natural artistic talent. Later in life, in an epiphany, Sarah felt an overwhelming desire to paint even though she had never received formal instruction. Her first work caught the eye of several galleries and she has been showing professionally ever since.
“I admire the Greek ideals of truth and beauty and so form my paintings with each in mind. Seeing beauty everywhere inspires me with a passion to paint. Because having this vision of the world is truly a blessing, being an artist is not just a profession for me, but a way of life.”
”Beauty is truth, truth beauty”—-that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. ~John Keats |
