My medium is a varied mix of tiny shells, scraps of paper, slivers of glass, thick gel mediums, crusted gouache additives, creamy acrylic and globs of oil paints, traces of watercolor and melted wax crayons combined with hardened enamels and carefully chosen 14kt gold flake.
Every piece is original and every creation is an unpredictable surprise! I create with a clear heart, no expectations. The materials combined together create a resist-like reaction and the results are different every time…..each piece is genuinely unique and original!
I’m passionate about living the artful life. I have a great appreciation for nature and animals,20% of all sales goes to S.N.A.P. (Spay and Neuter Assistance Program) for animals. I am also an active advocate for the “Adopt Don’t Shop!” movement which means finding forever homes for our homeless furry friends.

I have a passion for upcycling old materials to create colorful and fun dimensional art. I use musical instruments, antique clocks, tennis rackets, and other materials to create abstract faces and characters.
Everything I make is an original piece. My letters and words are assembled using junk drawer and garage sale finds. My vinyl paintings use vintage records that evoke nostalgic feelings. My abstract landscapes are from travel photos, mostly from national parks. Follow my artwork on Instagram. Art Valet Interview from Dec 29, 2020 : Butterworth makes jokes along with creating art
My paintings are based on direct observation. I take my French easel out into the city I call home, Houston TX. The subject matter, although always changing, is often the confluence of what I love about Houston; it’s buildings, bayous, highways, tree-lined streets and lush parks and gardens. I hope you can see the beauty of Houston in my Urban Landscapes. 713-305-6626 https://deatlyart.net@deatlyarthur

Even though I’m from Houston I received my BFA from Kansas City Art Institute. I was influenced by a professor that said art started and ended with Cezanne. My style is based on the plein air approach of painting from direct observation much like Cezanne approached his subject matter. I go out every week and paint the city I live in, It is my honest response to what I call the Beautiful Ugly that is Houston a place built in a swampy mosquito-infested marshland designed based more on greed happen chance than esthetics. Highway byways bayous and buildings.
“I create art glass décor using stained glass lead came, German leaded crystal and recycled American glass. I incorporate various elements, such as seashells, mirrors, color, & sacred geometry to achieve uniquely quirky and creative pieces.”
I love objects with multiple personalities- recognizable things that change when incorporated in a piece of artwork. I see that in my work- where antiques and recycled or found objects suggest one thing while the image may suggest another. I love how the layering of encaustic wax reflects the light differently depending on your viewpoint- like water and glass do.

At a young age, Sarah discovered her love for art. The process of creating was what sparked her interest. As her love for art continued to grow, she knew the right career choice was to become an artist & art educator. She has now taught art in Houston for 4 years. In 2016, after a life-changing experience, she knew she needed to rediscover her passion for creating. It wasn’t until she started to create again, that she was able to see her true potential as an artist. Her approach to art is intuitive & free flowing as she dives into each new work. She is inspired by color & the process of applying it to her canvas.
“And though the process can sometimes be ugly, it is the final moment that makes it all worth it,” Rimboch said. “Complete satisfaction knowing there is something sitting in front of me that only exists because I created it. And that, is ultimately what fuels my passion.”
