Sue Townsend has her own studio at her home in the Cotswolds and also helps teach and encourage others in their artistic pursuits. Art has been a lifetime interest but since her retirement a few years ago has only taken to painting seriously as a part-time professional. Although mainly self taught much of her technical ability has been gained from attending various courses by well-known artist/tutors.

Sue is producing some excellent work which reflects her love of light and colour especially in oil and watercolour. As an Associate of the Trevor Waugh Studios she is constantly being tutored and encouraged by Trevor to whom she is indebted for her new-found career.

Her love of the countryside and interaction with the places she visits is evident in the pictures she paints, whether it be wildlife, landscape or the local scenes of places here or abroad.

Sue has sold many paintings by regularly exhibiting with local and national societies and has also exhibited in Majorca and Malta. Paintings have even found themselves being sent to the USA and other mainland Europe countries. Her popularity is growing and collectors of her work are always watching out for the next series of paintings.
