About Sue Townsend

As a child I loved painting and drawing and at school but never really thought about it seriously.   I have dabbled in art for most of my life but not until in my 60's did I take it up seriously and take a foundation course and a further 4 years with well known artistTrevor Waugh.   Taking art seriously has given me a new lease of life and I thoroughly enjoy my "work".

I paint in a contemporary impressionistic style using colour and light to depict my very broad base of subject maatter. I use oil, acrylic and watercolour but also love drawing and sketching and I have a sketch book and field box in the car together with a well worn digital camera to capture those  "I must paint that" moments.   With a brush in my hand I am never bored !

I run local painting groups, give demonstrations and workshops.   During the summer I take day excursions to local beauty spots and country houses.   I also take small groups to France and Venice on painting holidays and visit other cultural cities and places in Europe.   See the Events page for further information.

I exhibit locally and nationally and have exhibited abroad in France, Majorca and Malta. My customers are from many different countries including the USA.   I travel  whenever I get the opportunity for renewed inspiration.
