Heirlooms

Call

Susan calls the lowcountry of South Carolina (Charleston) home.  After a career in medicine as a Registered Nurse, she found her true love in the creation of art.  While she has tried several different types of art, oil and watercolor painting are her chosen mediums.  

Her style is realistic and is heavily influenced by nature itself.  Whether she is painting a landscape, a colorful outdoor market, or florals, she strives to create realistic images that depict the beauty, peace and love that still exists.  While understanding that art may not eliminate  hate and chaos instantaneously, her goal is to bring a moment of calm and a feeling of love to all who view her work.

“If someone looks at one of my paintings and responds with a smile or laughter I am rewarded by that spontaneous expression of emotion”

Now a resident of Sarasota Florida, she has been fortunate to be mentored by well-known Sarasota artist Suzanne Peckfor the last 12 years.  She has also studied with such renowned artists as Mary Whyte (watercolor) and Joseph McGurl (oil, plein air).  Her work has been shown at Art Center Sarasota and Art and Frame of Sarasota.  She is a member of Oil Painters of America, Florida Watercolor Society, Lightchasers Plein Air Painters and The Painting Ladies of Sarasota.  She is represented by Artists on Main, a gallery in Sarasota.
