Susie Fairbrother
Acrylic on Canvas, Oil on Canvas

"Susie is a self-taught artist currently residing in Vankleek Hill, ON. Her large family was the source of her first creative impulses. Both her father and maternal grandmother were artists.
For years Susie worked as a stained-glass craftsman, and later as a set designer/painter. More recently she worked on special art programs in an inner-city school, instructing students on wall murals and concert backdrops.
In 2002 she decided to paint full time and hasn’t stopped since. Her whimsical impressions of nature and memory foster a sense of curiosity and joy. “My work interprets all the beauty I see while leaving all my stories behind as I go. I feel so fortunate, as painting is my great pleasure.”"
