Susan Ryder's Interior and Landscape Paintings
Sue Ryder, The Dressing Table. I came across a British artist who I think you might like, if not already: Susan Ryder. She paints these wonderful interior scenes, with rich colors and painterly strokes. Her father was an amateur painter and encouraged her to pick up a brush at an early age and pursue the art life. Too often I read about famous artists who had to push against their parents to pursue the art life. But it can turn out okay, as Ryder proves!
