Sarah Switlyk

My name is Sarah Switlyk and I was born and raised in Hunterdon County. I decided to pursue a career with art because it is my true passion. I one day hope to become an illustrator and concept designer for video game developers. Any job where I can use creative solutions would be a dream come true. Other than that, I love running and tennis, and have recently been enjoying chess. I was nervous going into this painting because I have never seriously honed in any practice into painting, but am very pleased with the outcome. I think it is important as an artist to understand all artistic material and mediums to refine one’s craft.

This piece depicts a glass vase, a steel mug, and a stein done from direct observation. Everything is painted in different shades of green to place focus around value and light, and how it interacts with the unique materials of each object.
