This beautiful image of a dress was created in a unique colour palette of golden tones on a black ground with white.
It is a reproduction, on rag paper, from an original artwork.
For the original a child’s dress was soaked in bleach and placed onto black cardboard. The bleach reacted with the black cardboard to create the golden tones.
White conte crayon was used to develop the artwork to this beautiful classic image.

Susy was born in NSW to Finnish born parents and has lived on bush acreage, a small coastal town, inner city Sydney, rural NSW and now on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland with her son who has Cerebral Palsy.
Nature and particularly the ocean are primary influences on her art.
Other work focuses on grief and joy and the complexity of the emotions we experience as human beings.
Another major interest is the weather and synoptic charts.
Recent work draws on Susy’s Finnish heritage and her maternal Grandmother’s woven wall hangings and fag rugs.
Susy has exhibited in many shows both group and solo and makes art because she has to.
Her studio time is limited though, due to the responsibilities of life with a disabled loved one.
