Sue McHugh SBA Fellow

Botanical artist & Foliage, Vegetation, Environment Art Specialist

I was very lucky to start my career over 27 years ago, specialising in foliage and environment art and I have developed this into a specialism in botanical art.

I am a Fellow member of the Society of Botanical Artists and my work has been exhibited with The Royal Society of British Artists in their 2024 exhibition.

I studied a degree in Fine Art at Manchester University, subsequently working as an Artist and art team manager. I enjoy speaking with keen students at schools, colleges and universities.

Expertise includes: Botanical illustration, Art direction, Research & planning, Concept work

Specialisms are: Botanical design and Biome planning . Vegetation & Foliage design and creation . and Photogrammetry.

I painted botanical art during lockdown 2020, gifting the paintings to key workers. Alongside other fundraising activities, including 3 London Marathons, I have raised over £20,000 for Children With Cancer UK.
