Exhibition and News

Last year was very busy with exhibitions in Whitstable (two), Canterbury, Tonbridge, Pembury, Lewes and Seaford.

Success is great but it got rather too hectic so I am focusing on developing my art this year, and have chosen to exhibit more locally at The Outpost, a delightful gallery in Penshurst, which I strongly recommend visiting.

You can see my work on my website www.beechwoodgallery.co.uk

Biography

A Kent based contemporary artist, Sue works in oils and acrylics from her studio, drawing inspiration from her love of the sea and local landscapes. The ever-changing moods of the sea, and skies, tranquility of calm waters and golden sunsets, and changing seasons provide her inspiration. She also enjoys the occasional eclectic and exuberant diversion!
The joy for her is seeing a client drawn to a painting because it resonates for them too. She hopes that her work reflects her enthusiasm and passion for her art, and her delight in colour and experimentation.
In Sue’s own words “Starting with a blank canvas is always a challenge and what follows can be rewarding, frustrating, or so absorbing you can’t put your brush down – and all in the process of pouring oneself into the creation of one painting! My art is an ever-changing journey that gives me enormous fulfilment and creates conversations and connections. I hope my work passes that pleasure onwards.”
She regularly exhibits in galleries, and annually holds her own art show. Her work is presented in hand made solid oak or ash frames.
