3 Piece Suite – Sue Duffy’s work

Sue’s Blog

Sue Duffy took on a topic that was near and dear to her heart!  The family bach (Kiwi holiday house!)  Sue’s grandfather built the house and over the years it grew and changed and morphed, with the family and extended family’s requirements and whimseys, like the exotic swirls that cover most of the buildings, painted by Sues sister.  It still stands today and is still in the family’s possession.  Sue’s pieces were a recreation of the bach in 1:12 scale, a version of the same bach, unfolded in a smaller scale and 4 wonderful wall hangings that encapsulated the beach view from the bach’s front.
