Suzanne is a West Australian/Whadjuk representational artist who works primarily in oils.  Her paintings reflect a love of portraiture/figurative and still life. Suzanne is inspired by the traditional techniques of layering paint over a toned ground surface, slowly building up transparent layers to create depth and form in a realistic approach.

Suzanne’s style has changed over time but what remains is a desire to continue to explore painting the human form and the communication of the human experience and how to visually capture that.  She has worked with world renowned artists in workshops and mentorship programs through her art career and education.

Among other exhibitions and awards Suzanne has taken part in, she has been fortunate to have been selected as semi-finalist in the prestigious Doug Moran National Portrait Prize, twice finalist in the Kennedy Art Prize, The National Emerging Art Prize and the Portia Geach Memorial Award.
