Sue Macartney Snape Art

b. 1957
Sue has quite rightly earned her reputation as the finest in her field. She simply has the ability to observe the day to day and the humourous side of life. Observing and revealing the hideous and glorious nature of English Eccentricities and portraying them in a wonderfully humorous way. Her works are funny, truthful, skilled and thoughtful all at once. Sue immortalises these very British characters and the situations they find themselves in perfectly .... we are all familiar with at least one of her characters in our own lives! Sue has has sell out exhibitions with David Ker, Jonathan Clark and The Sloane Club and has had many commissions, including ones from Glynebourne, The Metropolitan Opera and Barbara Amiel - wife of Lord Conrad Black - a list surely to grow! Macartney Snape won the 2004 Pont Award for drawing the British Character.

Flea, the Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist once said of Pettibon's Black Flag illustrations and iconic logo: "Before I knew what Black Flag was I remember walking around Hollywood and seeing Raymond's flyers and being like, 'What the fuck is that?'… Those flyers made me feel like something is going on and it's romantic and it's mysterious and it's heavy and I don't know what it is but I wanna know." About Raymond Pettibon (Americanb. 1957) Raymond Pettibon is a contemporary American artist known for his stylized ink drawings combining images and text. His inventive narratives blend historical content with consumer culture to yield incisive critiques of contemporary society. “I was making my work as transparent as possible, without equivocations, without calling attention to itself, without apology,” he explained. “There's a lot of conventions in the art world that are not to be transgressed, but my economy of means doesn't abide by those strictures.” Born Raymond Ginn on June 16, 1957 in Tucson, AZ, the artist is self-taught, but cites drawings by William Blake, Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, and John Sloan as instructive to his practice. Deriving inspiration from comics, cartoons, and other pop culture iconography, Pettibon began designing album covers and ephemera for his brother’s band Black Flag in the mid-1970s. He went on to produce cover art for Sonic Youth, the Minutemen...

Rare Large Original British Illustration Art Watercolor Painting "Horse Races"
By Sue Macartney Snape
Located in Surfside, FL
Sue Macartney-Snape Watercolor painting (with highlights of gold metallic paint) titled on label "Goodwood Races" Signed with initials verso. Info on label verso Dimensions: H 38.75" x W 31" (Sight) H 30" x W 22.5" (being sold unframed) Goodwood Racecourse is a horse-racing track five miles north of Chichester, West Sussex, in England controlled by the family of the Duke of Richmond, whose seat is nearby Goodwood House. Sue Mccartney Snape was born in Tanzania and brought up in Australia. She now lives and paints in London and is the award winning artist and illustrator of the 'Social Stereotypes' column in the Saturday Telegraph. Sue has been the Saturday Telegraph Magazine's illustrator for over 15 years, and has a reputation as the finest in her field. With her limited edition lithograph prints selling worldwide, she is a household name, and has been acclaimed as 'the P.G. Wodehouse of art' Social commentator Sue Macartney-Snape has been illuminating English life with her dart-like wit and observatory skills in the column ‘Social Stereotypes’, carrying on the grand old tradition of mordant English satire. She is a master of caricature and her limited-edition prints of British social stereotypes are brilliant, whimsical, and amusing. She shows us misfits and ultrafits, but always with affection. Sue Macartney-Snape has the ability to observe the day to day and the humorous side of life. Her intriguing observations reveal the hideous and glorious nature of English Eccentricities. Travel writer and television personality John Julius Norwich calls Macartney-Snape a "master of caricature" and says her paintings and limited edition prints "illustrate the English social scene more brilliantly and with greater accuracy than those of any other painter working today." Her work is similar to Jules Feiffer, Ronald Searle, Quentin Blake...
