Sarah McCullough (b. 2005) is a young emerging artist based in Sydney, Australia. She is currently undertaking a Bachelor of Visual Arts at the University of Sydney (SCA).
Living in the Sutherland Shire and frequently travelling to Lake Conjola on the South Coast, Sarah draws much of her inspiration from the Australian bush and coastline. She works from her small home studio, often referencing photographs taken during her explorations.
Sarah has a passion for the Australian landscape, with a particular focus on its rich flora and fauna, which are intricately woven into her artistic practice. Through her artmaking, she reflects on her love for the South Coast of NSW, drawing inspiration from the vibrant natural beauty of the coastline and its bush surroundings.
Her painting process begins with a base coat of diluted paint to soften the blank canvas, followed by sketching and layering colour with bold brushstrokes and palette knife techniques. Sarah’s use of complementary colours, orange and blue, yellow, green, and purple captures the vibrancy, movement, and energy of the Australian landscape, particularly its flora, fauna, and coastal beauty.
Her work has been showcased in ARTEXPRESS 2024 for her piece Fragility of Life, exhibited at Tamworth and Cowra Regional Galleries and in the ARTEXPRESS Virtual Galleries, recognising excellence in HSC Visual Arts. In August 2024, she held her inaugural solo exhibition Coastal Reflections at Clifton School of Arts (CSA), she has also featured in Tyger Gallery’s group show Life in Colour (November 2024), alongside 30 contemporary artists and most recently has had her solo exhibition, On the Road Again... at CSA August 2025.
