Sue was born in Tonbridge Wells in 1942. She gained a National Diploma in Design in 1963 after training at Canterbury College of Art where she specialised in graphic design, where relief printmaking was an integral part of the course.
Sue spent most of her life parenting and working as a free-lance designer and illustrator but in 1989 the purchase of a Columbian printing press renewed her interest in printmaking and the fat ladies began to emerge.
Joining a life drawing workshop she went with them into landscape painting and after discovering the stunning colours of Greece she had a solo show of paintings in 2002 in the Richmond Riverside Gallery. Working as a painter and printmaker over the years there have been pieces in numerous exhibitions and shows.
As well as pursuing her own work Sue is currently employed by Kingston Adult Education where she teaches experimental drawing and painting.
