About Sue Gasser:
Sue Gasser has worked as an artist for most of her life, having shown her natural talent since childhood.
In her thirties, she was introduced to pastels when she completed and topped a Showcard and Ticketwriting course. Her teacher advised her to forget signwriting and ‘go’ with her art, so she started entering shows and, to her surprise, began making some sales.
Sue fell in love with using pastels because they bring out the softness and detail she seeks in her work. She also realised that she’s more of a ‘drawer’ than a painter, which is the technique pastels naturally lend themselves to.
Living in the Blue Mountains of NSW, Sue has plenty of subjects to paint, especially animals. She’s passionate about Australian subjects—the landscape, wildlife, Aussie dogs, and more. Her paintings, whether of wildlife or domestic animals, showcase her love for them by highlighting intricate details like fur and feathers.
Sue has had many successful exhibitions and has won numerous awards, including the prestigious Art Awards of Sydney. One of her paintings was even bought by the Blue Mountains City Council to give as a gift to the Mayor of Sanda, Japan.
Sue’s art is known not only in Australia but also in many countries around the world. She enjoys teaching budding artists and finds it fulfilling to help and motivate others.

Look forward to seeing you there!
