Susan Lives in the Florida coastal community of Palm Harbor.  Her watercolor paintings and colored pencil drawings are greatly influenced by the seaside surroundings of the Gulf Coast.  She brings a feminine perspective of nature achieved by Plein Air and Studio painting using clear clean bright transparent watercolors in a loose free style or colored pencils on sanded pastel paper.

As a graduate from SanJose State with a BS degree in Business she pursued a career in accounting as a CPA. While working she kept her soul alive by taking art classes, sharpening her skills as an artist by attending workshops, and retreats concentrating on watercolor, colored pencil and drawing.

She has had a colored pencil piece in CPSA’s International Colored Pencil Show.  Her work has won many awards and she has created a following by participating in fine art and craft festivals throughout the state of Florida and has had her paintings in galleries around the local area, including the Rotary Central Nature Center at Honeymoon Island State Park.
