ARTISTIC STATEMENT

The paintings are based on a woman’s passion and strength as she explores the spiritual side of life.

The distinctive mood of Susan’s paintings evokes an immediate response. With a style rich in colour she captures a spirit that is imaginative, playful, and sensitive. Susan applies bold, confident brush strokes to convey emotion, using oil, acrylic, or mixed media. Colour, for Susan represents elements of artist expression, a language.

With each painting, Susan first works on developing the message. In doing so she transfers her heart, and soul with passion. She believes her art reflects a silent story, and by the use of colour, and texture that will touch, and connect with the emotions of the viewer. Her hope is to share, give to each canvas a voice for the person to see, to feel, her sense of vision. The poet in her expresses the thoughtful mood. Her abstract paintings bring into play the fantasies that explore her inmost self such as simplicity of life, landscape, and imaginary freedom.
