Sue Luxton

About

Devon artist Sue Luxton joins Artizan Gallery in June for an exhibition of recent works based on local landscapes to her home student in Ashwater and the surrounding  West Country area.

Painting now for over 20 years Sue produces scenes captures in sketchbooks from her travels, often recalling scenes for a work many years after they were first sketched. Some observations, people in particular, are revisited time and time again to inspire multiple pieces.

Painting with a reduced colour palette, Sue creates works which embrace the flatness of her canvas, each element occupying its own two dimensional space on the plane. Oils, pastels and other media are called upon, dictated by the subject of the piece. Each has a unique energy, colours selected carefully to offer a vocabulary of serenity or rush, heat or cool, expanse or confinement.
