45-second impact describer. We are here. On the edge. Eighty-five seconds to midnight. PLEASE SHARE. Please find a thing that you can do to help stop this. Then please try to find another thing. And another. The world will feel … Continue reading Climate Change: the coming crisis
As with the other recent pieces, this is also made using water-soluble oils on a 50x40cm canvas. The detail above shows the bridge to be underwater, reflecting the projected impact of rising water levels globally should climate change not be addressed urgently, seriously, and head-on. Description The image below shows the bridge more clearly emphasised using watercolour pencil (dry) drawn into the scratched lines of the bridge made with a stylus. I used fixative on this section to minimise the effects of accidental wetting. An irony if ever there was one. © Suzanne Conboy-Hill 2026 Continue reading Flood: the between times
Sometimes a painting is done in minutes, other times it practically moves in, takes your comfortable chair and puts its feet up on the cat. WildFires was one of the latter and this is so much one of the first … Continue reading Desert: after the flood and after the burn
Charcoal sketch of the new bridge and the surrounding landscape. Canvas is 40×50 cm. This moved very quickly, grimly in keeping with the nature of wildfires. The bridge here is barely visible and I was still debating with myself whether … Continue reading Fire: wildfires
This painting is the kid whose uniform never fitted, who never had the right books in their bag and lost their dinner money on the way to school. It’s worn multiple overcoats, had some reconditioned, ripped a few and lost … Continue reading Ghost Lights
Not quite done. I’ve realised I want to tidy up a strip of light blue on the right, given it’s acquired the status of galaxy. In fact it turned out that a much bigger and wholly, significantly, impactful change was … Continue reading Brighton Station then or now, or in between [final painting titled Marshmallow Skies]
AR enabled. I had no words for this painting when I posted it earlier, and it didn’t go to my exhibition on the 6th and 13th of June because of its inherent violence. Now I do have the words, and … Continue reading War Flowers #2
16th May 2026. I’d been thinking of auroras, hence the curtain of colours drifting down from the top of this A1 card. It’s very unlikely to stay this bright, but I do like a bright primary layer as a base … Continue reading Sunglasses on for this one!
This is a scattering of random shapes, cut out and dropped/rearranged/pushed around on the 20 x 20cm canvas I’d primed using a leftover blue mix then scrubbed with a rough cloth. This revealed hints of the earlier neon orange layer. Quite a lot to like about this, including the colours and the unattached elements, even the tone of the board it’s sitting on! But it doesn’t say anything to me. No coherence, no story. These are small birds on what I intended to be green-screen, but they reminded me too much of what I believe may have been Romulan lettering … Continue reading Incidental Moon (previously Open door)
The blue winter light is affecting the photo, although, that said, it is meant to be a view from the seabed. Birds are essential to our survival. This is what they do for us: Handmade bird silhouette from an earlier … Continue reading Stercus aureum
