Create specific figures and plot onto them:

import seaborn as sns
iris = sns.load_dataset('iris')

length_fig, length_ax = plt.subplots()
sns.barplot(x='sepal_length', y='species', data=iris, ax=length_ax)
length_fig.savefig('ex1.pdf')

width_fig, width_ax = plt.subplots()
sns.barplot(x='sepal_width', y='species', data=iris, ax=width_ax)
width_fig.savefig('ex2.pdf')
