Sue’s love and interest in painting and drawing began in early childhood, studying at Middlesbrough college of Art. One of the most memorable moments from Sue's early career as an artist came in 1977 when she was declared the North East winner for portraiture in a national TV Programme, 'Painting along with Nancy Kominsky’.
Over the years, Sue has balanced her love of art with a full time job and two children. Now that the children have grown up, Sue's time can be devoted to painting. Today, Sue is a successful exhibitor, tutor and demonstrator, painting commissions, especially portraits and animals.
Sue is a member of a number of art societies and groups, as well as being the programme secretary of the popular Leven Arts Society. She regularly exhibits on both at local and national exhibitions, for example a number of Sue's paintings were included as part of a national exhibition by the National Society of Women Artists (NSWA) at the Westminster Gallery Central Hall in London.
Sue is a recognised and admired artist who demonstrates and teaches weekly in adult education classes and on her ever popular weekend workshops and holidays in pastel, watercolour and other mediums. Her work is exhibited widely through local and national exhibitions and galleries, and also at the Society of Women Artists in Mall Galleries, London and The Royal Society of Marine Artists (RSMA).
Sue’s aim is to stretch all students regardless of ability, to form a foundation of artistic techniques whilst developing their own style in a relaxed learning environment. Each student will be guided through each painting stage carefully throughout the day from an initial demonstration to get you started, followed by patient, professional tuition throughout the holiday.
