Wearable Art by Susie Webster

Artist Statement

A life of creativity has led me to develop my Wearable Art range and to pursue my Mixed Media Artwork.

My Wearable Art has developed over the years.  I began with monoprint images and then began using, photographs, fabrics and beautiful papers to embellish the clay base which is then given a resin finish.  No two pieces on display are alike as I like to ensure individuality in my pieces.

My Paintings are mainly mixed media landscape artworks that may begin as a monoprint and then are further developed using a myriad of techniques and incorporating such things as sand, oil pastel, photographs and resin.

I love what I do.  I have had a lifelong passion and desire to create, beginning as a young child.

The natural environment is my inspiration and I am constantly amazed at what we are given when we just take the time to look a little closer.

I live and work in the Southern Highlands of NSW and greatly enjoy the diversity this environment offers me.
