Susan Watt

Media: Collage

Biography

Susan Watt is a Warwickshire-based collage artist known for her distinctive approach to “painting with paper.” Working primarily with recycled magazines, she creates richly detailed pieces that mimic the depth and atmosphere of traditional painting while revealing layers of texture, colour, and hidden imagery on closer inspection.

At the heart of Susan’s practice is a fascination with transformation—repurposing everyday printed materials into something unexpected and extraordinary. Her work often plays with perception, incorporating fragments of text and image that subtly emerge, inviting the viewer to look again and discover more.

Inspired by the natural world, changing seasons, and the visual richness of printed media, her collages are both intricate and expressive. Alongside creating original work for exhibitions and commissions, Susan is passionate about sharing her process through workshops, encouraging others to explore creativity through this accessible and sustainable medium.
