Sarah Jane Szikora
Coming from a large family Sarah Jane Szikora was constantly looking for ways to amuse herself and soon discovered that drawing and painting were by far her favourite. Sarah Jane also made frequent trips abroad to her father’s native Hungary, encountering for the first time the larger than life ladies and gents who were probably the earliest influence for the characters in her paintings.
Although she found school to be an unpleasant experience Sarah Jane enjoyed art and music classes, so it was natural for her to pursue an artistic career. Sarah Jane Szikora completed a foundation course at Harrogate College of Art where she studied a range of subjects, including photography, sculpture and graphics. During this time Sarah Jane maintained a lifelong interest in simple drawing, and always enjoyed the life class most.
From Harrogate Sarah Jane Szikora went on to study illustration at Cleveland College of Art. The same interest in studying the human form continued and led to the development of the extreme figures in her work.
Sarah Jane Szikora left Cleveland, taking with her a HND with distinction and a handful of paintings, but Sarah Jane didn’t yet know how to turn her studies into a job, so the painting went on the backburner. more on Sarah Jane Szikora
