She exhibits widely and her work is held in a number of national institutions including the National Library of Scotland, the British Museum, the Fitzwilliam Museum and the Royal Collection.
Susie Leiper paints and writes on everything from vast walls and canvases to small pieces of wood and artist books. A keen hillwalker, Susie came to painting through a fascination with Chinese landscape art where the emphasis is strongly on the mountain. She is also known as a calligrapher and lettering artist, sometimes combining text and paint, sometimes separating the two. Navigating between the monumental and the miniscule.
