Sue Creates Art
Offering Cairns Art Classes, SHS Boutique and Artwork

Welcome, I'm Sue
I’ve called Cairns home for nearly three years, finding endless inspiration in its breathtaking rainforests, stunning beaches, and vibrant natural beauty. Through drawing, painting, surface pattern design, digital art and photography, I channel the region's patterns and textures into my work, capturing its essence and sharing the magic of nature and creativity with others.

Glenis’s layered works draw on the rich colour and texture of the tropics using pencil, ink, oil, and acrylic.
