Susan is passionate about women’s rights and birth rights, and has been on a journey of discovery through her own births, and supporting the births of others as a doula, and this has led her back to her art. Embracing the fabulous world of art and illustration, Susan is inspired by strength, femininity, passion, motherhood and political struggle. Illustrating Cycle to the Moon by Veronika Sophia Robinson has given Susan the space to entwine her passions of feminism and art; symbolic of her own journey back to the feminine. www.susanmerrick.co.uk
