Susie Gradwell

Her inspiration is drawn from a love of the timeless forms and decorative qualities of urns, vases and mosaics, combined with a fascination for pattern and ornament. It is the idea of discovery of surviving traces and remains of lost, decayed, buried relics from archaeological finds that continually inspires her.
Her work has been regularly selected for Open Competition Exhibitions, including the Mall Galleries, London, the RWA, Bristol, the Victoria Gallery, Bath and is also in many private collections.
She studied at St. Martin’s School of Art ( BA ) and the Central School of Art (MA ), London, before moving to the West Country in 1980, where she has continued to live and work.
She is a member of Artists 303, Spike Island Print, Somerset Printmakers and Bath Artist Printmakers.
