artist biography

Suzannah Jones is an emerging artist who was heavily inspired by her seven years living in Whyalla, South Australia. Drawn to the energy of the surrounding landscape of the Eyre Peninsula and the Flinders Ranges, she began drawing it in 2006. Later that year she won the Grindell’s Hut Residency and subsequently held her first solo show at the Fountain Gallery in 2007.

Suzannah is currently based in Port Stephens, NSW.
