Sarah Hodgkins
After a successful career in design, sales and marketing, Sarah Hodgkins set up Charlotte Designs in 2005, to concentrate on the design of children’s spaces. It became apparent that the mural side of the business was the one that had the most potential and so from 2009, Charlotte Designs became a mural design and painting company.
Since then, Sarah has painted over 650 murals throughout the UK and in Europe and her clients include, NHS, Epson UK, Dulux, Guiness, Gleneagles Hotel, David Lloyd Leisure and Keuhne and Nagel, as well as a large number of schools, hospitals, councils and businesses. She has even painted for royalty!
Since 2010, she has worked with young people interested in a career in the arts and continues to welcome students on work experience into her company. In 2023, she unveiled her range of printed mural papers, which enables her to send her murals around the world.
She lives in South Northants with her husband and mad, fluffy dog. She has two grown up children and when she isn't painting or podcasting, Sarah can be found on the tennis court or in the pub!
