Red-capped Robin shows a single little Red-capped Robin in a slightly green abstract environment. I needed to add some green to the dry Canberra winter! Why I painted this little chap was because he was a new species to us- there are many variations of Robin ranging from Pink, Yellow to Red and they have different head feathers too- usually white caps are common so this little one with a red cap was a delight to find. A big Thank you goes to my husband Steven Willemse who photographed this little Robin on on a rocky outcrop one cold Canberra winter morning- it was the only wind sheltered branch in the area! I got to photograph Steve taking the photograph of Red-capped Robin before he flew off.

Susan was born in Rhodesia, educated in South Africa at Groote Schuur Hospital where she worked for 20 years and now lives in Australia. Having rewritten her medical exams with Distinction in 2011 in Australia she was saddened when the cervical cancer Pap screening was deemed not cost effective in 2017 in Australia and palliative hospitals were built instead. It was then that she followed her second dream which had started in High School with the final art prize in 1985 and started her own art practice in Canberra. Susan is absolutely loving the art world now for she has discovered Art is the universal language that heals and connects people in this world. Susan still believes that prevention of cancer and early diagnosis is a worthwhile cause and is glad she was able to help others and glad that the Australian radiologists were spared the cost cuts of 2017 so they were able to help her live as well but she now welcomes you to share her journey forward in the Arts.
