Sue Dion is…

…a painter, a teacher, and a planter. (Not a gardener—she thought she was a gardener for years, until she came to understand that she was really just a planter.) She loves putting things in the ground and seeing what happens, whether it’s flowers, ideas, or something like a bold new color on a canvas.

Sue teaches in her comfy Uxbridge studio and at the Worcester Art Museum, where she encourages artists of all levels to loosen up, trust their instincts, and enjoy the process as much as the outcome.

When she’s not in the studio, you’ll most likely find her on the tennis court, in her kitchen cooking something delicious, or wandering through her wonderfully wild and unabashedly messy gardens.
