Sarah Avni Explained
Sarah I. Avni is a Slovak artist, based in Prague. She is involved in artistic photography and interior design in addition to painting.
Career and education
Sarah Avni received her artistic education at Graphic Art School in Jihlava in the Czech Republic where she studied drawing and painting.[1] She traveled through Europe, where she collected inspiration that has since made its way into her artistic work. She returned to Slovakia in 2006 and began to concentrate on painting and photography.
