sarah elyse granetz
Sarah Elyse Granetz lives in New York, New York.
She received her B.A. in Fine Arts from George Washington University in Washington, D.C. During this time, Sarah studied in Paris, France. What began as a "self portrait" assignment has transformed into My Body Is Not For Sale, a meditative series on the female form through literal impressions of the artist’s actual body.
"Sarah Elyse Granetz applies paint to her body like a paintbrush, using her limbs to create unique pieces of art."
