Artist: Suzanne Barrett
Medium: Oil on canvas
Size: 63.5cm x 53.5cm x 5.5cm
Framed: Yes, oak frame
Coastal Rain reflects my ongoing exploration of the Australian coastline and its shifting moods. Inspired by moments when weather softens the landscape, this piece captures the quiet intersection of sea, sky, and rain.
Working with layered brushstrokes and intuitive mark-making, I aim to evoke the movement of water and the atmosphere of a passing storm. The palette of soft blues, greys, and subtle pinks creates a sense of calm, while gentle contrasts suggest light emerging through cloud.
Rather than focusing on a specific location, my intention is to convey a feeling—of openness, stillness, and connection to nature. This work is designed to bring a sense of space and quiet energy into the home.
Oil paint and oil drawing sticks over an acrylic base painting on canvas. The edges have been finished in a light pink to complement the colours of the painting and to give it a pink glow against the frame, similar to the soft glow of a sunrise/sunset. It is professionally framed in a beautiful oak frame. It also comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Suzanne creates abstracted coastal landscapes using brush and often a palette knife. Her work is gestural and layered to create a sense of movement across the canvas like the ever-changing coastal landscape.

from 114 reviewsThe details in this is absolutely mind blowing. Incredible piece of art. I will keep this forever!
Hi Angie. Just letting you know that your gorgeous painting has arrived and I love it. Actually I love all of you works and hope to purchase more in the future, but for now I am happily deciding where to hang this one!!! Near the kitchen and drinks cabinet. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
Hello Angela, My painting has arrived safely and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!! Thank you.
Hi Angela! just wanted to let you know I received my (your art ? today 'Garden Magnolias 9') and I love it! It's even more beautiful in real life. Thank you so much! I've been admiring your artwork for a while and when saw it on The Block I thought I'd better be quick. Thanks again. Oh and the framing is great too.
Pride of place. It literally jumps off the wall, and just like in real life it reveals more, and changes with the light of the day. A masterpiece.
Hi Angie, I hope this message finds you well & happy. I just wanted to send you a quick message to let you know my paintings arrived safe & sound. My goodness, they are even better in real life!! I adore them & find myself stopping & staring at them in wonder (I even caught my partner doing it too). I feel so very lucky that I can have such gorgeous artworks in my home. So I wanted to write to say thank you again. They have brought me so much joy already & I know they will continue to do so into the future. Best wishes (& I will be in contact again once I have saved enough for another commission).
Dear Angela, we have just received your beautiful painting and are absolutely thrilled with it. Although our semi rural home in Berry is by no means remote, our children always have those home again feelings when returning from the city. It is such a lovely piece of art. Hopefully we can commission you for something larger soon. Best wishes.
Love love the painting! Can't stop staring at it for the light it gives off (somehow!?) We are in a temporary set up, so I've got it with all our nice furniture (kids toys!) for now ? I really love it. I like so many of your pieces, I'll definitely buy another one when I can. Hopefully something a bit bigger next time but this fruit bowl is perfect. So reminiscent of something my granny would love and the green background (and the banana!) won me over. Thanks again!!
Angela, I received Olive Branches 2 today. WOW. I'M ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED.
Hi Angie. The delivery went smoothly despite us having unusual arrangements. We love the painting and are really happy with your work and our purchase. Making a substantial expenditure on an item like this that you've only seen online is a bit nerve-wracking but we're thrilled. Thanks again & warm regards.
Hi Angela. Mum and I saw the Bundarra painting last night. My family can’t wait to give it to my dad. He has no idea! Will film and send you the video when he receives it. It will be interesting to see his response. Thank you Angela for this wonderful art work and your prompt and easy going communication to make this happen.
Dear Angela, This afternoon, I returned home from an appointment to find a rather large package safely placed on my front porch. I cannot tell you just how happy I was. My husband brought it into the house and we placed it on the floor in our family room. You may not believe this, but I felt so nervous and excited, both at the same time, as Paul carefully removed the packaging. Angela, I actually was overwhelmed with joy when I saw your absolutely magnificent painting, that I cried. I loved it when I saw it online, and l am so very proud to have this beautiful painting of yours in my home. My darling daughters, they are twins and have young family’s, both love Australian artwork and one especially found you for me. I fell in love with your Garden Walk paintings and have always loved roses ever since I was very young. My grandmother had beautiful roses in her garden, as do I still now at my home. I have probably rambled on for far too long, but once again, thank you and God bless. Oh and by the way, my husband loved it too. Kind regards.
I - and more importantly my wife - was overjoyed with the quality of the commissioned piece. It was exactly what I was after: a special unique gift that will be timeless and indeed more treasured as the years go on. Besides the quality of the artwork itself, I cannot fault the ease of ordering and liaison with you, the ease of the e-commerce front end and the personalised hand delivery of the finished artwork. I have already sung your praises to a few others that like special pieces so hopefully some follow in work will come your way!
This was a commissioned piece of a walking track with ocean and mountain views, in Apollo Bay - our happy place. My husband and I gifted it to each-other as a wedding anniversary token. We splashed out a bit extra on a gift to each-other,since the last 2 years were riddled with covid and all its lockdowns. There is always a degree of uncertainty when you seek a commissioned piece, and you need to remember that your vision may have a different interpretation to the artist’s perceptions. We were open-minded to this and prepared to accept the artist’s (Angie’s) interpretation. But Angie worked to the brief flawlessly, and we are beyond thrilled with our piece. It sits in our lounge area, where most of our time is spent when we are home, so that we can enjoy it to its fullest. And when we aren’t in Apollo Bay in person, looking at this artwork transports us there mentally. All the family love it, and visitors admire it also.’ We could never thank you enough Angie- it brings us so much joy. Thanks Angie - it is much loved
Hi Angela Hawkey, I hope that all is well with you, and once again I have to say how very excited I was to receive my amazing artwork ‘Country Dreamer’. Your artwork takes pride of place in my home, where my family and friend’s can enjoy its distinctive beauty. It is so beautiful and over the course of the day, the ever changing light brings life to this painting. Angela Hawkey, in closing I would like you to know that I can honestly say that your magnificent artworks bring me so much joy every day.
