Sue Howells
Sue Howells is a self-trained artist and now works full time as a painter. She works mainly in watercolours but also likes to experiment and try out new painting techniques and different materials.
Sue has, at first glance, what appears to be a very casual style but this can only be achieved with endless hours of practice and many years of experience.
Sue has held a number of solo exhibitions throughout the UK and her work now appears in many private collections throughout the world.
