Susan Wordsworth
Delving into depictions of landscape and life from a personal perspective Susan Wordsworth reinterprets the natural world. Her paintings and etchings weave observations of the real world with the dream world of her poetic imagination.
” I always have a sketchbook with me and capture the world around me through observational drawings. These initial sketches inspire deeper exploration in the studio where I can be creative with colour, form and unexpected mark making to express a sense of awe and wonder at the beauty and mystery of both nature and humanity".
An ardent traveller, her work blends the wild vitality of tangled jungles with the pastoral essence of English landscapes and intimate portraiture. Her collages and paintings incorporate mixed materials, painted etchings and printed papers which are the starting blocks to open the door of her remembered experience. She works without boundaries making sensitive images that have a reflective narrative.
Susan Wordsworth studied at Cheltenham School of Art (University of Gloucester) and joined the 2019 Drawing Year (postgraduate intensive) at The Royal Drawing School (London). She is a member of Bath Artist Printmakers Cooperative and Bath Art Circle.
