Winter. Cold outside. Warm inside. Surround yourself with the right energy. Art does that. We need art in our lives, in our homes, on our walls. You'll love how it makes you feel.

Lots of great things will be happening in 2012. I'll keep you posted.

About Susan



As a flautist and artist, my art and music are very closely related in that with both, I strive to create not the exactness of nature or notes, but a mood. Despite all of nature's beauty, a delicate flower, a drop of water on a leaf after the rain, it is not a perfect image I try to paint, but an inner feeling - abstract, yet real. To look for something that isn't there, yet creating an image in your mind.

My paintings are about colours, textures, always nature - sea, land or sky. My inner experience, not to be felt for that is mine, but to paint it into an image for you to experience in your own way. My mixed media works are the more intricate, complicated side of me. They represent the chaos of life, again, not the exactness of nature, but a mood. Out of chaos, comes a calmness once the work is completed, as in one's life. Each piece is a painting, cut by hand, each new miniature square revealing one small image of nature, reassembled to create an essence. Then, different objects are added. Bronze, silver, gold, precious stones, shells, hand blown glass, wire, whatever my mind sees to enhance the scene giving life and energy.
