Susan lives and paints in Bovingdon. She dabbled in watercolours all through her life but 'took the plunge' and studied Fine Art at Middlesex University as a mature student, graduating in 2012.

Susan paints her surrounding countryside, flowers growing in her garden and various treasured favourite objects in her home, together with landscapes from her travels. She often changes or enhances the colours to create "a sense of the moment".

Susan works in watercolour, pastels, acrylics and collage. She is influenced by the work of The Impressionists, Marc Chagall and the vibrant colours and shapes of stained glass windows. Her paintings often bring elements from nature into interior settings.

Wolfango Chiappella

I’m a British-Italian artist, based in Buckinghamshire but originally from the rolling hills of Piedmont, Italy. I paint mostly in oils, working from memory, sketches, and those quiet moments when a place stops you mid-step.

My work tends to orbit around landscapes — not the grand postcard kind, but the everyday corners where light, sky, and earth have a quiet conversation. I’m drawn to the shifts in weather, the worn paths, the way a tree can lean into a field like it's got a story to tell.

I’m not much for big statements. I paint what I notice, and sometimes what I miss. Sometimes I’m chasing a real memory, sometimes it’s the feeling of one.

Each painting is a small attempt to hold onto something fleeting — a sky clearing after rain, the gold haze of a summer field, the hush just before dusk. If you find a bit of yourself in any of them, then the painting’s done its job.
