CORNWALL ORIGINAL PAINTINGS
Layering the unique Cornish light and with a sensitive use of colour, my artwork capture the seas, coast and skies of the north coast of Cornwall. The alchemy of water, paint, ink combined with large gestures, complex backgrounds, texture reveal the soul of the sea and spirit of the coast which comes from walking the beaches and swimming in the waves and sea in all seasons and all weathers.

'WHEN you buy a piece of art, you are buying days, weeks and months of pure joy. You aren't just buying a thing, you're buying a piece of heart, part of a soul, a small piece of someone elses life'
TESTIMONIAL: We visited Sue at her studio near Bude and would recommend that you do the same. Sue welcomes visitors and it was very interesting to understand her inspiration and the process as well as be surrounded by her art in various stages of development. It certainly helped make our mind up to purchase a piece of her original art which is so much better to see in person than on a screenAll in all we love the piece we have purchased and look forward to going back in the future to look at new collections
