I'm an artist travelling extensively for inspiration!

Artist Sue Pownall
From my 2013 solo exhibition.

People, diverse cultures, and the natural world are recurring themes in my art. While realistic in nature, my work represents my interpretation of what I see. Always present is my love of detail: objects, buildings, settings, and individuals that touch and move me.

I portray the essence of my surroundings primarily in pen and ink drawings. In a century full of colour and technology, my hand-drawn black and white work stands apart. On occasion, however, colour enters into my work in the form of watercolours.

Finally, I'm an urban sketcher. I established the Muscat sketchers and recently the Colchester Sketchers. My sketchbook is my constant companion.

For me, it's important to create opportunities for others to share my love of art, which is why I arrange sketching events and give school talks. More importantly, I like to use my art and organisational skills to raise funds for charities, whether through my annual fundraiser or by donating work.
