Artwork Description

Aerosis is inspired by days spent at the beach, capturing the rhythmic interplay of sea, sky, and shoreline. Inspired by the simple joy and nostalgia of time spent by the water, this piece explores the quiet narratives found where the ocean meets the land. Through layered, expressive brushwork, Aerosis seeks to evoke the sensory experience of the coast—the wind driving thick clouds, gulls being lifted, and the sea whipped into foam. The title alludes to the atmospheric weight of the salt air, inviting the viewer to reconnect with the restorative, timeless power of the natural environment.

Acrylic on stretched canvas, professionally framed in a beautiful oak box frame. It is finished in satin varnish for protection and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Suzanne creates abstracted coastal landscapes using brush and often a palette knife. Her work is gestural and layered to create a sense of movement across the canvas like the ever-changing coastal landscape.

Artist Bio

Suzanne Barrett is an Australian coastal landscape artist whose work is inspired by the ever-changing beauty of the ocean. She holds a BA in Fine Art and a Visual Art Teaching qualification, giving her a solid professional background in The Arts. Living and creating in close connection with the shoreline, she draws on the colours, light, and atmosphere of the coast to produce evocative seascapes that capture both movement and stillness.

Working primarily in acrylics, and occasionally in oil, Suzanne layers soft washes, textured brushwork, and palette knife depth to reflect the shifting moods of the sea—from calm, glassy horizons to windswept tides. Her paintings often blur the line between realism and abstraction, allowing the essence of a place to emerge rather than a literal depiction.

Suzanne’s process is intuitive and reflective, guided by her emotional response to the landscape. Inspired by early mornings by the water, salt air, and the rhythm of waves, her work invites viewers to reconnect with a sense of calm, space, and escape.

Her pieces are collected by those who feel a deep affinity with the coast, bringing a sense of tranquility and openness into contemporary interiors. Through her art, Suzanne Barrett offers a gentle reminder of the restorative power of the ocean and the beauty found in its simplicity.
