<p>Dear members and friends of Bromley Art Society.</p>
<p>I hope you are enjoying your Easter break. Our 1st Friday
demonstration was postponed until this Friday because of Easter.
This Friday at the Daylight Inn 7pm am am delighted to say we have
a brilliant vibrant artist in Susan Clare to provide us with a
demonstration. <br>
</p>
<p>Susan says "I paint in watercolours, acrylics and mixed media.
Right now, I'm steering my paintings towards improving ocean
awareness. I've spent most of my adult life in Jamaica, so I
paint my tumbling tropical garden, faces full of character and the
Caribbean reefs. I add atmosphere with ambiguous passages of
texture and light, or colour and pattern. I want people to feel
connected with and protective of our natural world".</p>
<p>In June 2018, Susan was awarded Winner in two categories of the
SAA Artist fo the Year 2018 (Animal & Wildlife and Water
scenes, Boats & Seascapes)</p>
<p>She has exhibited in many solo and group shows in Jamaica,
Florida, London, (including the Mall Galleries), Chelmsford and
The Beecroft, in Southend-on-Sea, Essex.</p>
<p>Visit Susan's, Website <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.susanclare.art/home">https://www.susanclare.art/home</a></p>
<p>Come and join us. It is free for members but friends of members
are also most welcome for a small £6.00 entrance fee. If you have

<p>"Coast" by Susan Clare<br>
I’ve been working on a new body of work this summer (2019) which
culminated in this semi-abstract seascape in acrylic on canvas
with mixed media and found objects incorporated into the surface
of the painting. Items such as nylon mesh bags and string,
reminding us of how our food-packaging is impacting the health of
the oceans on a daily basis. Coffee grounds, great for a natural
fertiliser, as also creating texture in this coastal scene.<br>
