Sally Ann Field is a visual artist influenced by human behavior and pop culture. Her background in art direction and design plays a significant role in her image-making.

She grew up in Western New York State. After high school, she exchanged her small town for the big city to study graphic design and began her career in advertising art direction in Miami, Florida, later relocating to Los Angeles, California. In 2022, she left her big-city life behind and settled in a small town in Mid Coast Maine.

Sally’s work has been exhibited at various institutions, both nationally and internationally. It has also been published online and in print in Don’t Take Pictures, Lenscratch, F-Stop Magazine, Huffington Post, Her Side of the Street, A Photo Editor, Click Magazine, Los Angeles Times, and Feature Shoot. Her photographs have garnered awards from Leica and National Geographic, and she gives back to various organizations through her photographic efforts.
