Susan is a keen observer of children, known for her international portraits of children done in the style of impressionism, and which tell a story or in some way express an element in the life of a child or of children.

She draws on her own international work with children, and photos taken during her trips, and occasionally accepts commissions.

Prices range from $1500 to $5000+ depending on size, complexity, and number of people in the painting, and can take a year or more to complete.

As each limited edition fine art print (between $100 and $200) becomes available a link will be added beneath the picture on this page. Occasionally smaller laser prints ($30) are made available and much appreciated by schools.

The above painting, Trinidad Soccer, was elected for the 2004 Redwood Artists Association juried exhibit at the Morris Graves Art Museum,Eureka, California
