Past exhibitions

 

Susan has participated in many exhibitions, both in Australia and overseas. Here is a snippet of some of the work and images of the exhibitions.

Susan’s paintings depict abstracted landscapes or close ups of plants and plant cells. Her finished prints, created using a combination of etching and relief printmaking techniques, often represent symbolic stories of nature.
