Sarah Bent
BIOGRAPHY
Sarah Bent, originally from England has been living in Hong Kong for over 40 years. A self-taught artist, her first works were in acrylic and pastel. She the moved onto watercolour and has loved it ever since. Initially painting portraits of pets and people, she has recently moved onto still lifes and botanical-themed paintings inspired by the wonderful tropical flora and fauna of Asia. She starts her process by taking photographs and then moves onto watercolours. She has exhibited in England, America, Australia and many countries in Asia, including Hong Kong.
