About Sarah & Tribute Sketches

Artist in Menomonee Falls, WI

Hi, I’m Sarah — an artist in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.

During my free time I create hand-drawn charcoal portraits of people and animals on 8.5×11 paper. For more than a decade, I’ve created commissioned pet portraits, and in January 2026 I started drawing tribute portraits of missing and murdered individuals and sending the finished pieces to their families as gifts.

Each portrait is my way of honoring a life, preserving a memory, and helping keep someone’s story visible. These tribute drawings are not commissioned and are sent with no expectation — simply as an offering of time, care, and compassion.

If you’re here because I’ve contacted you about sending a portrait of your loved one, know that I am expecting nothing in return – just an address so that I can send the drawing to you. I hope this page gives you some context about who I am and why I do this. I am not seeking publicity or personal information and I will never share your address or private details. I am not affiliated with any organizations; my intention is simply to create something meaningful that may bring comfort, remembrance, or awareness.

Tribute Sketches exists to honor those we love — and to ensure they are not forgotten.

Thank you for being here.

— Sarah
