Welcome, I'm Sue

I’ve called Cairns home for nearly four 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.

Avian Silhouettes: Mixed Media Ink & Watercolor

Step into a creative space where expressive colour meets intentional line. Avian Silhouettes invites you to experiment with flowing watercolour washes before grounding your artwork with bold inked bird forms and intricate detailing. This workshop is perfect for anyone wanting to loosen up with colour while sharpening their pen and ink skills.
