Meet Sarah
Sarah Wheless Murrin is from Houston, Texas. She paints and lives on a ranch in Fort Worth with her husband, Philip, and their three grown children. Sarah is a graduate of the Kinkaid School, UT Austin Plan II, where she wrote her thesis on art collecting thanks to her parents’ inspiration for collecting, and SMU’s Cox MBA/Meadows MA in Arts Management.
Sarah is a self-taught painter and is always innovating to see what the colors and paints reveal. Her styles include Collage, Assemblage, Color Field, Illuminated Manuscripts, Pop Art, and Kawaii.
Faith and family are most important to her, as well as her cherished groups of girlfriends in the Book Club, the Pretty Kitties, and the Fort Worth Women’s Art Circle, to name a few. Art has always been a way of connecting throughout her life, and travel & museums provide great inspiration.
Organizations near and dear to her are Studio Beloved/Project Beloved, Save Venice, and UT’s Harry Ransom Center.
