Sue Scott (also known as S L Scott) is a contemporary landscape artist based in Manchester, UK.

Her work is heavily influenced by her childhood connections to both the urban setting of Manchester and the rural landscapes of Herefordshire, Shropshire, and Scotland.

Style and Themes

• Subject Matter: She primarily paints urban and rural landscapes. Her major themes include:

  • Manchester Cityscapes: Depicting iconic landmarks, architecture, and the city's relationship between historical and contemporary buildings.

  • British Landscapes: Capturing the scenery of the Lake District, Snowdonia, Scotland, and the Peak District.

• Technique: Scott often uses acrylic paint, allowing for bold and bright colours and a distinctive, often more abstract or graphic style compared to the realism of oils she previously used.

• Aesthetics: Her paintings are known for their bold use of colour and sharp, graphic lines that capture the vibrancy and distinct character of the varied British landscapes.

Scott often produces original paintings, fine art prints, and commissions, with her family's history in Manchester's manufacturing industry serving as an inspiration for her city-based work.
