"I don't have much time to really focus my efforts on drawing and illustration. It's more of a hobbie of mine. I enjoy it when I don't take it too seriously. I think a hobby should be relaxing and enjoyable!" -Sarah
Apart from work and design, Sarah spends her time at home or with her friends watching TV and playing video games. Her favorite games being World of Warcraft, Dragon Age, and Stardew Valley!
