She builds her compositions without brushes, instead using found objects in rhythmic mark‑making, circular, and sculptural textures that blur the boundary between spontaneity and intention. Her surfaces carry a sense of movement — gestures that feel alive.
Living with chronic nerve pain, Susan paints in a reclined position, close to the page, letting intuition guide the rhythm of each mark. This proximity creates raw, instinctive gestures that are emotionally honest. What might be seen as a limitation becomes her signature: a method that brings vulnerability and immediacy. Her art balances strength and softness, structure and openness — a duality that mirrors her own lived experience.
