Susie Zol
welcome to my studio

Every time I create, I am ready to receive. Every time I create, I am open to seeing a clearer picture of my connection with life. Every time I create, I see a reflection of myself which comes with the gift of clarity and purpose.
I paint intuitively, letting layers of paint, marks, fabric and paper interact and unfold into a story. When I discover the story within the painting, its meaning comes into focus. When the meaning has been revealed, my painting is complete.
