This Is Sarah Kelly

Graphic Designer
& Illustrator

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, and board game industry specialist with seven years of experience creating immersive tabletop game visuals. I’ve led and collaborated on projects with major publishers, designing game layouts, iconography, marketing materials, and tradeshow assets. Beyond board games, I run my own art business, selling original watercolor artwork and prints. Whether designing for a game or creating unique illustrations, I’m passionate about crafting visuals that connect with people.

Sand Art

What is it?

Sand Art is a unique entry in the “___ & write” style of games. During play, you move back and forth along a linear track of actions on the workbench, gathering different colors of sand in your supply, mixing primary colors of sand into new secondary colors, and pouring them into bottles to create patterns and images that will attract customers in your shop. Creating the most unique and visually pleasing bottles will earn you the most points.

This “move & fill” game carries the spirit of “roll & write” games, while also appealing to fans of pattern-building and abstract games.
