who is visual-ess?

ARTIST. MOTHER. MENTOR. 

Hey! I’m Sarah. I’m a full-time creative and mother based in Reading. I specialise in branding, digital illustration, web design and social media content. My design style ranges from vibrant and bold to minimal and clean, depending on the project’s needs. Over the years my love for art and really just expressing myself creatively has allowed me to pick up many skills. I've spent my entire life jumping into everything with the mindset of "I'll just figure it out" and I haven't stopped figuring it out since. 

I began my journey as a Graphic Designer in fashion retail, where I worked for Long Tall Sally and Austin Reed for a few years before going freelance. Starting freelancing in 2016, I found a new interest in digital art and illustration where I have since produced artwork that has been featured in printed publications and digital billboards across the globe. I’ve collaborated with both small and large brands, including Universal Music, Warner Music, Aaliyah Jay, Ashleigh Jadee and Erika Lust.

For the past six years, I’ve built and run my own brand while raising my children and helping others bring their vision to life. Motherhood has made being an entrepreneur and business owner a resourceful journey, and I'm proof that if you have no clue what you're doing you can always just figure it out.
