Sarah Applebaum is an eccentric artist who resides in the equally creative city of San Francisco.

Her crazy creations are made of the most diverse colours and are arranged in a variety of geometric styling.

Check out the gallery to see how Sarah Applebaum incorporates a sense of emotion into every piece of work.

**Implications** - Artworks like this definitely stand out in a world of their own, but that is exactly the kind of uniqueness that would stand out to consumers. By incorporating bright colors, quirky playfulness and a truly fearless approach, art such as this implores the viewer to want to learn more. This is a great example what provocative advertising should always aim for.
