An Artist and a Mother is a book of visual artworks and essays that speak to the diverse ways artists balance creative life with the demands of mothering. It includes thirty seven essays describing the work of thirty-nine international artists and an art collective, as well as a resource guide with books, journals, magazines, organizations, and other resources. This book seeks to highlight the growing body of artist mothers who are making visually and conceptually interesting artwork not just despite their status as mothers, but often because of the inspiration and challenges that come with motherhood.

In 2019 Susanne du Toit was commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery in London to paint a portrait of the writer Jeanette Winterson for their collection.
Inspired by her encounter with Winterson, du Toit undertook a new body of work making a series of portraits: Painting Women Writers.
With preliminary sketches and notes from the artist on her process, contributions on the experience of being a sitter from the writers, an introductory essay by art historian Sacha Llewellyn and a foreword on portraiture by Jeanette Winterson, this is a record of that project and the portraits of the women she painted.
