Maker's bio

I am a professional artist, specialising in animals and nature subjects. I have been offering workshops and demonstrations for 18 months, and they have been very popular. It is important to me that each person who comes to one of my courses feels comfortable and can work at their own pace. The focus is on building up your techniques to allow you to really loosen up and paint with confidence. I love hearing from my students who are happily taking their painting forward following a workshop and getting great results too. As an artist, I work in oils, acrylics and mixed media. My use of colour can be surprising and quite bright! My rainbow cow painting is on the cover of Artists and Illustrators' March 2023 edition.

Charmain reviewed: 'Bluebell Woods' Acrylic Painting Workshop with Sue Gardner

"Throughly enjoyed my Highland Cow Painting day with Sue. I haven’t painted before and was amazed at the result. Sue guided us step by step through the process whilst allowing for and encouraging our individual style. We had lots of time, it was very relaxed, with a superb lunch and gorgeous homemade cake. It was a really lovely day out and a treat not to have to clock watch but just get lost in the process. I’d highly recommend it, even if you haven’t painted before. I thought it was excellent value for money. "
