Season 2 Episode 19 - meet artist Susie Dureau at her so tidy studio
Thanks for listening to this episode it was so inspiring to meet and talk all things creative with artist Susie Dureau. Susie is represented by Curatorial and Co
Here is Susie's latest artist statement
.Observations of light and atmosphere are central to my creative practice and while my paintings are landscape based, they are much more than literal depictions of the wilderness. They speak also of the wildness and primal nature in us.
In painting I seek to define that moment when a human being in the landscape feels so utterly connected to nature that she ceases to see herself as separate. I primarily work with oil on linen - beginning with loom state when time permits. My dedication to traditional techniques is for me akin to a summoning of the spirits of masters past - they are my constant guides. I live with my family on the Northern Beaches of Sydney where I take regular inspiration from the wild and free coastline. I work within a creative collective called LaCreme Creative Inc. in Brookvale where I get to spend my days surrounded by creatives of all kinds from filmmakers and architects to glassblowers and street artists.
