"...delighting in and affirming life through interaction with water, its metaphors and its poetry..." 

Darren Harvey-Regan

“My work always begins with water - often with the sea. This kind of ‘elemental communion’ makes me both agent and advocate for this precious wilderness.

Since my MA at Plymouth University, I continue my poetic exploration of water - its philosophies and strategies - through the alchemy of paint. ”

Susie David

I experience water as sanctuary.

My paintings echo water’s qualities, and convey aspects of this meditative space - the oceanic wilderness within.

At various times throughout the year,
small series of paintings are made available to buy directly from my studio - contact me
to get priority.

New work - v small oil on panel
Falling out of bed and into a dawn mid tide sea. The viscous water catches me and lifts up up up.

Each of my paintings is original. I believe, more now than ever, in the presence and material encounter with physical art - especially painting - where substance communicates with our psyches in a language beyond the rational - like water itself.
