Los Angeles native Sarah DeRemer merges fauna with her own penchant for the surreal in this series of manipulated images. Having worked as a veterinary technician for over 8 years, her love for animals runs deep, making them the primary muses and protagonists of her work. These portrayals come in all sorts of flavors, whether they are images steeped in complex beauty and moodiness, or balloon animals rendered in all their realistic splendor, Sarah applies her formidable retouching skills to a complete spectrum of emotion and energy levels.
Sarah adds dimension, texture and life to balloon animals. While these are retouched it seems feasibile that someday this art will inspire printed balloons to reproduce the effect. Sometimes the most simple ideas are the most brilliant.
