Susie Leiper paints and writes on everything from vast walls and canvases to small pieces of wood and artist books. A keen hillwalker, Susie came to painting through a fascination with Chinese landscape art where the emphasis is strongly on the mountain. She is also known as a calligrapher and lettering artist, sometimes combining text and paint, sometimes separating the two. Navigating between the monumental and the miniscule.
She exhibits widely and her work is held in a number of national institutions including the National Library of Scotland, the British Museum, the Fitzwilliam Museum and the Royal Collection.
