SUSANNAH CROOK I PAINTER
|
Susannah is a professional artist living close to the North Somerset coast. Her inspiration is her local landscape….. the tide, the sky, the rocks, the pebbles and the timeless geological features. Using natural earth, mineral and botanical pigments gathered or grown in the South West, Susannah aims to represent our timeless and precious world. Becoming a more ecologically aware artist, using sustainable materials as much as she can, has become a very important part of her practice. At ArtPort24 Susannah will be showcasing a wide range of work - coastal landscapes, rock formations, and the meditative quality of the bands of light on the Severn Estuary as it reaches the sea. For Susannah working mindfully and often intuitively allows for a deeper connection to the land. Walking, observing, gathering earth, grinding earth, making paint and then painting, inspired by that same landscape, is a grounding, cyclical and meditative process.
