Sue King Art - Open Studios

Newly moved to Looe, I am lucky to have a cosy shed with amazing views, where I create fused glass alongside paintings inspired by colour and nature.

This will be my first time exhibiting at Cornwall Open Studios and I look forward to welcoming you to my shed perched high up overlooking Looe bay!

My hubby and I moved to Cornwall in 2022, from London, where I had originally worked as a hotel interior designer for several years. I then went on to study a PostGrad in glass at Central St Martins, following which I had a studio for 14 years at Cockpit Arts in Deptford. Whilst there, I created many glass commissions for residential and also the public healthcare sector. I regularly took part in artist’s open house weekends in my local area which I loved, especially meeting people and chatting about my work! More recently I returned to my love of painting during lockdown, alongside running art classes for children. I love to mix up my working life with a variety of creative roles to keep me on my toes and the energy flowing!

I will be showing my fused glass designs alongside paintings and sketches. My work is always inspired by colour, design and of course the beautiful scenery of Cornwall will be seeping into my work so new influences will start to emerge! I love to create expressive paintings with texture and mark making using acrylic, watercolour, pastels and other mediums.

Artwork I will be showing, will include small glass items to buy, alongside sketches and paintings. I can also work to commission for special gifts and would love to chat about any ideas you have!

I can’t promise ‘homemade’ cakes, but I will provide drinks for those who make it up the hill or across the Wooldown to visit me!
