Sara H
Sara Hagoss is one of our artists here at Muse Paintbar. She is a very hardworking and charismatic person who enjoys what she does and has fun doing it. She makes artworks inspired by mythology and stories throughout her whole life. She feels a sort of connection with the stories. She feels like their stories are dying and she tries to imagine what they look like from what she heard. For her, art is a way of opening creativity, of building a creative world. Art is a way to tell stories that people would not be able to tell. Art turns strangers into friends and friends to family. Without art, without artists, for her, she wouldn't be ourselves anymore. Because she feels that within the confines of any artistic form of expression, she feels like it allows us to wear a mask. The artist hides behind words or paints or brushes. And she feels safe. The world can't stop her, simply because she is who she is. There's nothing that can define her more than being an artist. She feels like with art, you can do anyone you want to do. Freedom in art is limitless.

"Emotions are a world of their own, and art seeks to explore that which cannot always be explained or understood, but can be felt.
