This oil painting of an exuberant and happy flower arrangement is also portrait of the artist in flowers. Two of my lifelong friends gifted me this arrangement. They planned the flowers and colors based on my personality. In a broader context I have been painting a series of works that utilize natural forms of plants, landscapes, and animals in an effort to address the impermanence of human experience in connection to my understandings as a new mother. I am inspired by an ongoing collaboration with florist friends, in this case, Ari Moore. She gifted me with this arrangement of lovely in season flowers that I reinterpreted as a direct oil painting. Due to the brevity of time I have to capture the life of these flowers, the paintings are made in quick time span. As a result, they contain lively brushstrokes and textured impasto paint. This artwork is painted on a linen canvas.

My art centers engagement with social change through the sharing of stories in community spaces. I make work about subcultures, outsiders, and the informal configurations of community. I examine identity through illustrating stories that are intimate and comment on larger social issues. Primarily I work with paint, but I additionally construct animated films made from my artwork, using stop motion animation techniques. Raised in Kirkwood, Missouri, Sarah Paulsen is an artist, filmmaker and community organizer whose artwork has been exhibited widely in local and national exhibitions, and whose prize-winning films have been featured in the St. Louis International Film Festival, the True/False Film Festival, the Black Maria Film Festival, the Motivate Film Festival and the Chicago International Children's Film Festival, among many others. She was a 2018 Great Rivers Biennial Winner culminating in an exhibit at the Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis. A 2010 C.A.T. Institute fellow and 2015 Regional Arts Commission Artist Fellow, she has garnered numerous awards for her work and also completed several residencies – including the Cite Internationale des Arts, Paris. A dedicated advocate for social change, a key aspect of Paulsen’s practice has always involved the orchestration of large-scale community projects, such as participatory public murals, thematic round-table discussions and the now-annual People’s Joy Parade on Cherokee Street. Paulsen holds a B.A. in visual art from the University of Missouri, Columbia and an M.F.A. from the Sam Fox School of Design and Visual Art at Washington University. She lives and works in St. Louis, where she teaches art and animation at Marian Middle School and local colleges.
