Susie Hawkins

Hello my name is Susie Hawkins. I am a Painter and Sculptor. I paint mostly in Acrylics, but I use oils and other mediums too.
My sculptures are all made from 99% recycled materials. The 1% is the paint and glue that I buy.
But painting is my passion. I can totally immerse myself in my own world and create where I want to be, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Most of my friends think I am off with the faeries when I am working and they are probably right! My girls have learned that the best way to get a raise in their allowance, is to wait until mum is working. Clever lot! I work from the mind straight onto canvas and let my brushes lead me. I love to paint to music and my daughters say they can tell what I was listening too by my paintings. The thing is they are rarely wrong!
Finally I would like to say a big thank you to all my friends and wonderful people here on PIL. Your encouragement and support has given me the confidence I needed both in my work and myself to strive to do better. I lost my youngest daughters father a couple of years ago, another Artist and my soul mate. For a long time I was lost, but not any longer, I know he would be so proud of how far I have come and would have loved this site as much as I do. Thank you and bless you all.
