A native of Texas, Suzanne received a Bachelors of Fine Art with a concentration in Drawing and Painting from the University of North Texas in 1976. At a time when most art majors were painting in acrylics, Suzanne was fascinated by wet-on-wet watercolors and was the first at UNT to receive the majority of her painting credits in watercolor. Her early watercolors were large, bright, and almost abstract as they took advantage of the qualities unique to watercolor.

Over the years Suzanne’s work has become more controlled, but she continues to use the wet-on-wet technique in smaller, confined spaces. Suzanne’s love of her subject matter is evident in her watercolors of flowers and cats; and her use of pure, clean colors evoke a joyful feeling.

Suzanne moved California in 1988 and to San Ramon in 2003. She is currently a member of the California Watercolor Association, the Livermore Art Association, and the Alamo Danville Artists Society; and participates annually in the Marin Art Festival in San Rafael and Art in the Gardens at the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens, along with a few local art shows.
