About

Sarah Bollingmo MA

Hi! I’m Sarah, a British-Irish artist and passionate animal advocate living in Norway. Through my paintings, each accompanied by a poem, I hope to inspire an appreciation for our fellow animals and their intrinsic value.

I started Sentient Beings to contribute to animal protection. I donate a portion of every sale to this cause: 15% from each painting and giclée print, alongside 100% of the proceeds from my miniature paintings. The For section details the organisations I’ve supported so far.

Thanks for reading! ♡

Commission an Animal Painting

I use mainly acrylic and oil on responsibly sourced stretched natural linen, cotton or high-quality art paper - as preferred. As a vegan, all my materials are strictly cruelty-free, and alternatives for the few paint exceptions affected are replaced (for example, Faber-Castell fine art pens replace black). I offer a range of sizes, from A6 to A2, and square canvas options between 30-50cm (larger-scale paintings are a possibility on occasion). I work from high-res photographs and am happy to chat about a potential painting with you - send me a message with the photo, size and timeframe you have in mind to sarah@bollingmo.com.
