Artistic Journeys – February – Sari Sauls


First a Special Note

Thank you for all the comments telling me how much you are enjoying the interviews. It means a lot that you have taken time out of your day to contact me. Let me address a few things, so we are all on the same page.

Yes, the articles are free. There is no subscription, and they will run until at least August 2020. Thank you for asking me where my donate button is, but I don’t have one. If you feel compelled to support me in some manner, you can buy one of my books.

If the subject manner of the books isn’t what you are interested in, you can donate a book in the following ways, which would mean a lot to me.

  1. A friend or neighbor. Who doesn’t love getting a book?


  2. The pediatric unit of your local hospital or, better yet, a Shriners hospital (Shriners has been an integral part of our family’s lives, and they are fabulous. They take difficult life situations and make them better).


  3. A woman’s shelter (I spent a good chunk of time there as a kid. I was thankful for the playroom that had books on a shelf.)



You can find information about my books here:

Again, thank you for taking time to write me. It’s always encouraging knowing how much people appreciate the work you put into a project.





Last month Per gave us a peek into someone relatively new to digital art, and this month, Sari is going to continue the way, but more than that, she is is the forerunner to the next few Artistic Journeys that will showcase our female artists.

Sari is new to digital art, and I think that shows us a little different perspective on the journey we are all on. When we look at established artists, we forget that they struggled. We somehow put them on a pedestal and forget that they traveled the same road we did. I think that’s what’s interesting about hearing from “newbies.” They are still finding their way.

Sari has always been artistic, as she will share with you, but she struggled with finding how to merge what she always knew to what she wanted to learn. Through a life-changing hardship, she delved into digital art, and it started her journey on merging traditional media with digital media. Maybe like her, you will see how you can bridge both worlds in a manner you never thought of before!

    I laughed about her cringe pics. Especially the fish.

      I laughed when I saw it too, Penny. One of my favorite parts of all the interviews was looking at everyone’s cringe pictures. I think it helps us all gain hope!

  2. Andy

    I liked hearing from a person not so advanced it was helpful

    • L.A. James

      Hearing from people at different points in the journey is always helpful. I agree.
