Today is International Children's Books Day. I'm looking forward to releasing "Roxy", my upcoming book for children aged eight to 12 years old. It's a story about a rabbit searching for his family.

Had masters like Salvador Dali been alive today, they would have made sure to make their mark on social media.

Here are 3 reasons artists should share their work on platforms like Bluesky and Facebook: sarahfenwickart.com/2024/08/27/t...

Utopia is inside us.

Artquest 29 of 30.

Watercolour inks on sketch paper.

#artchallenges #artist #art #artpractice #artforsalebyartist
In Greek, utopia means no place. We search outside ourselves for a promised land when all the time it's within us. This piece by Sarah Fenwick is titled Utopia is inside us. It's in watercolour inks on sketch paper. Part of Artquest's 30/30 art challenge, it's number 29. The arcs in the centre symbolise a way forward. The ones on the side are wings. We quiet our external senses to go inward and find the beauty beyond words and experience.

Chaos butterflies. 25 of 30 Artquest daily making. Watercolour inks and collage on sketch paper.

#artist #butterflies #chaos #chaostheory #art #artforsalebyartist
Chaos theory is about the ripple effects of small disturbances on big systems. This piece by Sarah Fenwick explores the beating of a butterfly's wings and its connection with chaos theory. We can all make a difference. The watercolours are orange, green, brown and blue. The collage is cut out in the shape of wings. Three butterflies beat their wings close to one another.

This painting in watercolour inks on sketch paper depicts a cuboid shape in the top right corner. It appears to float above a watery blue shape below. The idea is to explore and develop ideas for bigger pieces and loosen up my art practice.
