Sue Averell's art is heavily textured. Since 1997 she has been developing her layering technique using acrylic pigments and polymers. Another aspect of Sue’s work is her use of metallic colors, often mixing them with flat color to add an iridescent look to the subject. Some of the layers are poured. Often the color spills over the edge of the canvas creating beautiful color patterns. Sue's work is ready to hang without a frame.
