Highlights
|
|
Susan attended Paier School of Art in Hamden, Connecticut, majoring in illustration and fine art. She has also taken various classes at Rhode Island School of Design and has been a working artist since 1975. Her interest in rendering birds, particularly waterfowl, was sparked by her first art-related job illustrating a weekly column Wings n Things for the Waterbury Republican newspaper in Connecticut. Soon to follow was Birds of Connecticut Salt Marshes, published by the Arboretum at Connecticut College. Since then she has illustrated many more books, scientific journals, aquarium exhibits and has worked as a graphic artist and illustrator and exhibited in galleries including the Maritime Gallery at Mystic Seaport, Hartford Fine Art and Framing in East Hartford, and Picture This Gallery in Westport, Connecticut. Her work is in private collections across the country and in such far flung places as Australia, France and Italy.
Susan is an accomplished artist of architectural subjects, and is able to render a detailed drawing or painting from blueprints or a rough conceptual idea. She accepts commissions for custom portraits of businesses or homes and gardens.
Watercolor is Susan's favorite medium followed closely by pen & ink. She has received the Ann Lewis Parker Award for Best Watercolor at South County Art Association?s Open Juried Show for Behind the Wall, as well as honorable mentions for On the Morgan I, and ,Light at Mystic. She also received an Honorable Mention for Barn Owl at The Wickford Art Association. A book she recently illustrated, Kid?s Easy-to-Create Wildlife Habitats written by Emily Stetson, won a 2006 Teachers? Choice Award and received critical acclaim in the School Library Journal. Her work, "On the Morgan II" was accepted into the prestigious 2006 International Show at the Maritime Gallery at Mystic Seaport.
Susan is a longtime member of the Artists? Cooperative Gallery of Westerly, an Elected Artist member of the Mystic Art Center (formerly Mystic Art Association), and an artist member and past president of South County Art Association.
