John Julius Norwich described Sue as a "master of caricature" whose paintings "illustrate the English social scene more brilliantly and with greater accuracy than those of any other painter working today." For 14 years she illustrated The Telegraph Magazine's 'Social Stereotypes' column, publishing nine books which have sold hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide. Her keen eye and quick wit continue to delight and amuse today as her originals are snapped up by a new generation of collectors.

“Sue Macartney Snape’s observation suggests that she has eyes on stalks.”

- Ned Sherrin

“Sue Macartney Snape belongs to a tradition that runs from William Hogarth to Ronald Searle.”

- Gyles Brandreth

“Victoria Mather and Sue Macartney Snape are not so much observers, more collectors, pinning their victims like butterflies in a display cabinet. . . Very enjoyable.”

- Michael Parkinson
