As an old friend recently quoted "you always liked making nice things Sue". That still applies and a love of tactile and luxurious fabric and yarn can be seen, layered, twisted, machined and embroidered into a variety of forms. Leaves are in evidence this year reflecting the artists love affair with trees. (Tulip tree a big favourite) There are mounted, framed and free hanging pieces as well as artists handmade cards and books. There is also a little peek at a new direction with some pieces made under the guidance of Rachel Cronin with Cropredy Art group.
Colour, pattern and texture are still dominant themes.
Sue has always been a maker, hence a career as an O.T. Always expanding her creative base through her work attending dance and drama waorkshops, foundation art and design with Trev Wardle and Martin et al at Banbury and furthering textile practice with Sue Green and The Embroiderers Guild. She has sold work from her studio, Rightangle Gallery, and exhibited widely, including Festival of Quilts at N.E.C.
Still learning she has recently picked up brushes and paint.
