Sue Lowe - Printmaking

Sue received a fine art degree in 2004 from the University for the Creative Arts at Farnham. Since graduating she has combined development of a printmaking practice with teaching in adult education and a career in arts administration.

Sue's work is hand-printed on an etching press, from collagraph or etched plates, sometimes layered and combined with monotype and chine colle.

The work is concerned with textures and surfaces and draws inspiration from the lines and patterns found in landscape and organic forms that tell stories of formation, growth, erosion and decay. Sue has developed a range of collagraph techniques that allow her to use found and recycled materials to create richly-textured prints.

Sue's work has always drawn on a love of the landscape of the Quantock Hills and the West Somerset coast. Sue was born and grew up in Somerset and, after a number of years living in London and Surrey, returned to the county in 2011 and now lives in Watchet. She is a member of Somerset Printmakers and Spike Print Studio, Bristol. Work can be seen in The Little Gallery, Watchet.
