Presentation: Unframed

Sarah Page is a local mural artist and current Walton County Artist of the Year 2024-25. After participating in the Shine Mural Festival in 2018, Sarah left a decade-long career in marketing and non-profit fundraising to pursue being a full-time artist. Since then, she’s painted over two-dozen murals across Florida. During that time, Sarah became a mother of two boys, physically, emotionally and spiritually transforming her identity. Through her art, Sarah explores the challenges and sacrifices women experience when they become mothers.

Chelsea Antonelli is a makeup artist and painter. With a creative spirit from a young age, she loves making fun, colorful and meaningful pieces of art that speak to her soul. Chelsea is a mother of two young boys. Originally from Colorado, Chelsea now lives with her family in Freeport, FL.

Sarah and Chelsea met while out with their families and have since become friends over playground playdates and mom-walks. This is their first creative collaboration.

About Sleeping Bear: As mothers of young children, we sometimes experience ourselves with two separate personalities. One is our “domesticated” side, who is calm, patient and loving. The other is our “untamed” wild side, who is animalistic, instinctual and fierce. While the latter may seem unwanted or forbidden, she has wisdom and something to say. She, too, is us. We must work with her, befriend her, and integrate her to be our fullest, strongest, most empowered selves. Together and balanced, these sides are beautiful and create the whole woman.
