Sarah Madden

Sarah Madden is an illustrator and designer based in Leeds, Yorkshire.

Having previously worked in design agencies, Sarah took the leap to illustrating full-time and hasn’t looked back. Her dreamy illustrations feature uplifting feminine figures, rich colour palettes and floral elements that represent strength, growth and optimism.

Often conceptual, Sarah’s inspired by extraordinarily ordinary everyday moments and people, depicting simple things that are often overlooked and highlighting the beauty in the everyday mundane.
