Congratulations to Sarah Williams for being featured in the September 2015 issue of Mind’s Eye. Her work is also being highlighted on the Research web page and on the Missouri State homepage.
About her paintings
Williams, assistant professor in art and design, describes the unique way she draws inspiration from low-lit photographs she snaps in dark alleys or by painting in the aisles of Wal-Mart as a student.
“I’m just really fascinated with how you can indicate the way of life or someone’s existence or personality through the way they’ve built whatever it is they use,” she told Mind’s Eye.
