Sarah Rutherford

Sarah Rutherford is a fine artist based in Wimbledon, South West London, working primarily in portraiture and still life.

Her still life paintings are studies in simplicity, drawing attention to the quiet beauty of everyday objects. Through careful observation of shape, colour and light, she transforms familiar forms into calm, considered compositions that reward close looking.

Alongside this, her portrait work carries a strong sense of presence and focus. Sarah approaches painting as an act of mindful attention, balancing a desire for precision with an instinctive pull towards looseness and abstraction. This tension between control and freedom gives her work both clarity and subtle energy.
