About the artist:

As a self taught, self representing professional artist, painting is my full time job but I also acknowledge the fact that I am incredibly lucky it is also something I have loved since the as far back as I can remember. Located in the Pocono Mountains of the Keystone State of PA, I am surrounded by the clean air,  natural beauty and roaming wildlife around my home, all of which are perks that come with living here and over time have proven to provide me with unlimited inspiration and imagination. All of my abstract textured paintings are created with a palette knife using oils, acrylics and sometimes whatever else is next to me that a painting calls for. Abstract art in general can come in different styles and where the artist focuses on either the color and/or design, my focus first and foremost is on the sculpted design, heavy texture and then the colors, which is why a palette knife is always my first and most important tool and a paint brush if ever used, is always secondary. I love creating all kinds of subjects in my style. Simplistic modern abstract paintings are the most freeing for me since I can get in front of a blank canvas and just go for it without worrying if someone else will like it or not, after all, it is my expression of what I see in that deep down place of my subconscious, completely subjective with absolutely no rules or constraints. Did I mention how much I love sculpting texture? To me, the more the merrier. So what is it that I sculpt with my palette knife? pretty much everything... knifing in dragonflies, butterflies, koi fish, poppies, white orchids, and all kinds of other flowers with a palette knife are just some of my favorites. Others I love creating are simple yet dramatic 1 or 2 tone abstract geometric paintings in dramatic bright solid colors as well as metallic gold silver and bronze. "Simple" heavily textured seascapes and surreal landscapes are some more of my favorites as when creating them my mind wonders to a relaxed and completely freed state . They also have an especially modern contemporary look and feel which is perfect for the modern home or office and hopefully they will make you feel as relaxed looking at them as I feel when creating them. You can take a look around to see some of my previously sold painting by navigating the side menu. These art works are available on a commission basis, but please keep in mind that since each painting is a one of a kind original with each palette knife stroke done by hand, that no 2 are ever exactly the same. Most people like purchasing completed ready to ship paintings and I constantly have new completed art pieces for sale and auction in my eBay store, be sure to check them out, this may save you in both the wait time and the purchase price, especially on the auction listings, plus auctions are so much more FUN :) ~Susanna
