Sarah Pickstone is an English artist. She won the John Moores Painting Prize in 2012 with her work Stevie Smith and the Willow, inspired by Smith's 1957 poem Not Waving But Drowning. It is one of a series of works she produced inspired by writing with connections to Regent's Park in London. Pickstone published an anthology, Park Notes, of these paintings and others' writing in 2014. In 2015 she exhibited a show, The Rehearsal, at Mercer Gallery in Harrogate. It featured works inspired by Laura Knight's Ready for Rehearsal, a drawing in the Mercer's collection which depicts dancers backstage.
