“Perch”
What a difference a firm line makes. This is a Zebra pen that makes a very fine line on, it seems, almost anything. Thank you, OJHillbilly. © Suzanne Conboy-Hill 2025 Continue reading “Perch”

“Build it and they will come”
6th November, 2025. A lucky misquote of the original, which suggested that building it would attract unspecified kinds of ‘he’, and that isn’t what you want in a back garden. This building involves ponds, which I put in not long … Continue reading “Build it and they will come”
Stylised shrubs and misty, foggy river bank
Both of these are from my own photos. The first has been abstracted by layering and scraping, thereby revealing evidence of the earlier painting, which contributes both colour and texture. Clearly very different in style, I made these alongside each … Continue reading Stylised shrubs and misty, foggy river bank
Fields at Beeding
Unfortunately, I can’t remember which ones! In this series, I’m painting over old pieces that no longer have relevance and so they come with their own underpainting. This is another 6×8″ canvas. I’ve done a lot of finger-blending with this … Continue reading Fields at Beeding
Adur river bank – view across the fields
I’m not sure why I couldn’t find the early-stage iterations yesterday, but here is one of them. It may be another example of my tendency to skip over the more painterly stages and go straight on to the dramatic. That … Continue reading Adur river bank – view across the fields

Diamond Frog Day
After a fashion. My year/level group, to whom I showed the latest iteration of the Frog Fall book and asked for thoughts about the cover, unanimously said the frogs needed to be hand-painted and not digitally rendered. It was hard … Continue reading Diamond Frog Day
Ted Talk
15th July, 2025. Probably along with many other communities, our village puts unused, grown-out-of, unwanted items out onto our driveways or walls for other people to take and a little while ago a small bear appeared on a wall down … Continue reading Ted Talk
Circles
Each of these is a greenscreen circle through which I can project videos and change them without changing the frame. The videos are all based on my own paintings. Audio is mine, made in Magix Music Maker. The images above … Continue reading Circles
Weather Systems
Begun 28th June, reporting 5th July 2025. This is Lancing seafront where a promenade emerges from behind some flats at one end and disappears into the far distance at the other. The beach is all pebbles and shingle except on … Continue reading Weather Systems
