The composition of Sue’s paintings is critical; based upon the law of proportion known as the “Golden Mean” – an aesthetic principle used by the ancient Greeks. Sue’s focus is the animal itself.

Her experience has taught her that “what you leave out is just as important as what you put in”. Her stark, clean images concentrate exclusively on the animal and convey the wide-open spaces of Africa.

Sue’s preferred painting medium is watercolour. This much under-rated medium is widely acknowledged by artists to be the most difficult. “There is no room for error with watercolour – once it is on the paper, it is almost impossible to remove – so I work carefully and accurately. I’m not attempting to reproduce reality, so I want to work fairly loosely too.

It is important for the viewer to be able to see the mark of the artist, the journey I have taken on the page. I don’t want a slick look.”
