Sara Dumanske is a Bay Area native and Oakland-based illustrator who likes to take a break from the “real world” to paint, draw, and design silly, fanciful, and sometimes delicious art. An avid believer in doing things because they make you happy, Sara creates art that tickles her own fancy, hoping that it will do the same for others.

Identifying as an illustrator allows Sara to switch between mediums to find the best one suited for the brief. Sara uses her mastery of both digital and fine art to create designs for her Etsy shop, original works on canvas and paper for her website, and a combination of both in commissions for private collectors. You can find her everywhere @PaintedWit.
