Susan Wells is a contemporary British artist inspired by colours and forms of flora in the landscape and in the ecology of their habitats. She portrays these in her colourful paintings of coastal plants, wildflowers, sea and rocks.
With her scientific background, she is fascinated by the unique geology of Penwith, in Cornwall, where Atlantic waves crash into hard granite rocks, richly streaked with minerals and with the ever-changing sea, a mirror reflecting the sky especially in the unique light of St Ives.
