Tea for Two

“Tea for Two” evokes the tenderness of shared ritual — a table set not just with cups and plates, but with presence, memory, and quiet companionship. Through soft abstractions and layered textures, the painting whispers of pause, connection, and the gentle beauty of ordinary moments made extraordinary together.

This piece was created using quality artistic acrylic paint, and other mixed media. My favourite tools are spatulas, brushes, wedges and my hands! Nothing is more tactile and makes the piece unique to myself than manipulating the paint with my fingers along with combining mediums to create multiple layers and textures, then cutting back through the layers to create an aged look..

On stretched canvas with gallery finished edges matching the face, it is finished in a high gloss varnish. Back of the canvas is professionally finished.

Comes with signed Certificate of Authenticity.

Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences, Susanne seamlessly blends tradition with a touch of the avant-garde. Every canvas becomes an experiment—an exploration of perception, form, and feeling. Through her work, she challenges conventional ways of seeing, embracing the freedom that comes with artistic expression.

Rooted between the ocean and hinterland of Queensland’s Gold Coast, her surroundings provide a rich source of inspiration. This connection to nature and place subtly informs her palette and compositions, adding depth to her visual storytelling.

Ultimately, Susanne’s art is a celebration of stylization and its transformative power. By bridging the tangible and the intangible, she encourages contemplation, sparks conversation, and reminds us that beauty lies in perception—waiting to be discovered in every brushstroke.
