Abstract

Inspired by her personal experiences with nature, Sue Lovegrove’s paintings portray both the strength and fragility of the natural world.  Painting is much more than a visual exercise for Sue, and she spends time absorbing the surrounding landscapes through other senses, such as smell and touch.  She immerses herself in remote and isolated environments, allowing herself to be ‘changed’ by her experiences of places before painting.  Recently, Sue has been influenced by the wild Tasmanian landscape at her backdoor, discovering the beauty within nature, such as the chaotic patterning of grasses shaped by the wind, tidal movements of water, or the remnant passage of an animal travelling through undergrowth.[Gallery media, 2010]
