COMICS
Selected pages from some of my recent comics.
My friend and fellow illustrator Sammy Borras once wrote a bio for me that said 'sometimes Sarah puts her illustrations in boxes and they magically become comics!' which sounds about right. I think comics bridge the gap between my love of book illustration and my love of animation, and I'm always excited when someone asks for comic work.
Many of the pages here are from small press anthologies and promotional mini-comics, and are some of my favourites of my own work because I like to laugh at my own jokes.
