Sue Lancaster - Mixed Media Artist
BA Hons. (Embroidered Textiles)
PGCE (Art)
MSDC
I trained at Loughborough and Liecester in the 1970's. Since then I have also topped up my training with a part time course at West Notts College, Mansfield, and as a result was accepted into The Society of Designer Craftsmen.
I taught Secondary school Art in Derbyshire and Sheffield until the late 1990's. Since then I have concentrated on developing my own work for sale, teaching Design Development to adults and running workshops for all ages on a freelance basis. The work I do falls into four categories. Please contact me if you are interested in finding out more about any of the following:
Items for Sale, Items for Exhibition, Artist in Residence in Schools
Talks and Workshops

Panels/Hangings
I search land, sea and sky for colour, composition and rythms that will inform my design developments into functional items. Often the first stage of this process results in a two-dimensional work suitable to be wall hung. Sometimes I return to this purely decorative format to further develop the abstract imagery.

Book Covers
Individually designed, reusable and hand washable covers containing a hardback book of acid-free cartridge paper. Available in A6, A5 and square format. Why not commission me to make a cover for your own book?

Bags
A selection of bags, both small and large, all individually handcrafted and original in design and technique. Constructed from painted and machine stitched surfaces on a variety of fabrics. All hand washable.Why not commission me to design and make a special set of accessories to suit an outfit or occassion?
