Sue is a Manchester based landscape artist who creates urban and rural paintings in acrylics. Sue spent many years living in rural Scotland but visiting Manchester regularly she became interested in the architectural contrasts, materials and styles of the city and began painting it when she returned to live there in 2011. Since then, Sue has been working full time developing her painting style and techniques.
Rural Landscapes, in particular the Lake District have featured more recently in Sue’s work, providing a break from her urban surroundings. Open space, mountains, trees and lakes provide subject for these paintings. Sue’s current work is dominated by sharp lines and bold colours which are an amalgamation of the unique hues and colour palette which she observes in each location.
