SuzanWaldinger was born in 1965 in Brooklyn, New York.Since the time she was a tot Suzan has been living a creative life, forever exploring the unlimited potential of the imagination, expressively conveying images in artistic ways.
As a self-taught artist, Suzan relies on unconventional methods when creating her paintings, rarely sketching an image before brush meets canvas.Acrylic paints are never thinned, creating bold, vivid, brush strokes of color.This impasto technique provides texture as paint pops off the canvas, creating works of art that, are not only visually appealing, but also appeal to ones sense of touch. Free from the restraints of one particular style, Suzan’s unique approach fosters the uninhibited evolution of her creative flow. She finds inspiration in the playful innocence of life which is evident in many of her unique colorful canvases.
Artists' work Suzan has been inspired include such artists as Matisse, Picasso, Kandinsky, and Pollack.
Suzan lives in South Salem, New York.She has volunteered much of her time with children and has donated many paintings to local charities including a permanent installation of 10 paintings at NorthernWestchesterHospital in Mount Kisco, NY.
