Sarah Jane Szikora was born in county Durham, England, in 1971. Sarah was encouraged from a young age to pursue her interest in drawing which led to a course in art and design at Harrogate College. Illustration at Cleveland College of Art followed from where she developed a love of drawing the human form!

Local dance studios created a melting pot of material from which a collection of drawings were created and developed into her fat and skinny ladies.

Sarah's influences include the wonderful and amusing drawings of Thomas Rowlanson and many other important artists. "I love humour and draw a lot of inspiration from funny books, films and television."

Her aim is most definitely not to ridicule but promote the idea of a society that likes itself and where her people, the ladies especially are confident positive characters, comfortable with their bodies. Sarah is very serious about her work, but most of all she wants to make people smile
