I was determined to make a go of it and not come home without some small success in hand, only problem was I never came home so strong was the pull of future personal career potential that I thought Australia could not offer me.” Sarah has now been based in the US for 24 years but admits that she is homesick for Australia. Each year she spends several months back in Melbourne, and shows her work locally every two years. Her latest exhibition Complex Geographies is at Flinders Lane Gallery until 19 September. Which five words best describe you? Motivated, passionate, inquisitive, intuitive, dedicated. How did you get your career start and what path have you taken since? My career really took off when I attended Tamarind Institute of Lithography in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I then went on the heels of graduating from Tamarind to New York to work in lithography as a master http://www.dailyimprint.net/2015/08/artist-sarah-amos.html[10/09/2015 4:29:19 PM] More interviews architect & interior designer ben pentreath architect clare cousins architect paul morgan architect tom ferguson architect vince alafaci artist + jewellery designer ari athans artist + stylist lisa madigan DAILY IMPRINT | Interviews on creative living: ARTIST SARAH AMOS collaborative printer. Collaborative printmaking then became my full-time profession, which took me on from New York after three years to the largest art colony in the US - The Vermont Studio Center in New England. I continued on for 10 years there as the master printer and worked with over 200 artists, helping them to make the very best prints they could. It was an incredible education and experience one that I value highly and was better than any MFA around. I then left over 10 years ago to concentrate on my own work fully and have never looked back. artist alex lekias artist anna-wili highfield artist belem lett artist cherry hood artist dagmar cyrulla artist danielle cross artist david band artist dion horstmans artist elizabeth marruffo artist guy maestri artist jenna snyder-phillips artist jennifer tyers What’s the best lesson you’ve learnt along the way?
