This is a post that is long over due,
however I'm kind of glad that I waited until now to feature
my insaaaanely talented friend Sarah Anne Dinardo.
Sarah and I met about six years ago while she was rushing
my sorority at Syracuse University. We quickly realized we probably
should have a met a long time ago but kept just missing each other.
The Narragansett native was a New England girl like myself and
had family that lived in the town where I grew up.
We shared a lot of the same childhood memories of my town and felt
we had a special connection. We were destined to be friends
and SO.... I took her as my little sister! Now we've grown so close
that I forgot that DG is what brought us together.
I feel like I've known her my whole life.
I have watched Sarah grow as an individual and an artist for
a while now.. and every day, through every sketch,
through every project, big or small, she continues to absolutely amaze me...
in every sense of the word.
She is an illustrator, a visual stylist, a florist, a collector
a fantastic cook and (drum roll please) a tape artist!
a fantastic cook and (drum roll please) a tape artist!
which means you have most definitely seen one of her tape sculptures.
Sarah creates these beautiful three dimensional
sculptures by hand rolling masking tape. It's crazy.
What I find so inspiring is that this art is something
I have never seen before. Something so truly unique.
That is so hart to find in the art world today.
In our past lives when we worked together,
I would be talking to her and I would notice this intense look in her
eye while she was listening to me.. and I would look down and she would
have rolled this golfball sized tape roll within like 30 seconds...
I call it her nervous twitch.
She has been doing this for years now
and I have been so tempted to do a post to show off her work.
Like I said before, I'm happy I waited until now because
she has just launched her new and improved website as of Saturday night!
And of course you should all check it out!
Sarah does have pieces that are for sale so if you are at all
interested in her work, or if you want to simply tell her how great
she is, please email her at sarahannedinardo@gmail.com!
She is truly such a warm and inspiring person.
Enjoy!
