Mixed Media Paintings and Collages
I had a really enjoyable evening running an informal collage workshop for the local Ukrainian Youth group which meets at St Barnabas Hall in Dulwich. Although they only had an hour and a half, they all came up with some imaginative and thought provoking collages, and still managed to have time for pizza and a chat too! I’m looking forward to going back again soon. You can find out more about the group and also see larger versions of these and more collages here:- Ukrainian Youth Group, Dulwich
It was a great surprise to go back to the Summer Exhibition with the family a few days ago and to see a red dot by my painting, especially as it was sold before the exhibition had even opened to the public. I was also very pleased to see so many red dots on my neighbours’ paintings – congrats, everyone!
The exhibition runs from 21/6 until 21/8:- more information about the Summer Exhibition
It’s in!! ‘Bradwell from Tollesbury’ will be part of the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2022. A lovely start to June. Have a look at my ‘news’ section for more details.
I was so busy getting ready for the Dulwich Festival Artists’ Open House this year that I forgot to post details in advance. Thanks so much to all the lovely visitors and customers. It was so good to meet people and to be able to open the studio again after such a long gap.
If you missed it, here’s a link to a video of a short walk-through the exhibition:- Artists’ Open House video May 2022 – Studio SE22
It was great to be able to visit the Mall Galleries to see the exhibition in real life! I was happy to see my painting on the wall there:- https://youtu.be/D5RZSBtkzHw
It was a lovely surprise to have some good news recently – my painting of a spiral staircase has been selected for the RI Watercolour exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London. It’s so long since I’ve been to any exhibitions so it will be lovely to visit one and to also be a part of it. If you’d like to visit the exhibition, pre-booking will be required here:- https://www.mallgalleries.org.uk/your-visit/admission
Happy to be featured as ‘Artist of the Day’ on Artfinder. Visit my Artfinder shop here:- https://www.artfinder.com/suzsi-corio
2 of my watercolour paintings have been pre-selected for the Royal Institute of Watercolours exhibition at the Mall galleries. ‘Bessie’s Dress’ is a collage made from many fragments of hand painted pieces of paper with varied tartan and plaid effects. I really enjoyed making this painting. ‘Nancy’s Dress’ is a nod to the 20’s, now that we are in the 20’s again but was made before we knew what an awful start to the new decade was to come. Take care and stay safe, everyone.
The new owners of ‘Amuna’s Dreamland’ recently sent me this photo of it on the wall of it’s new home – look at their gorgeous garden view! I’m really pleased to see it ‘in situ’ and in such a lovely setting.
