Hello You!
I’m excited to share some big updates. This season has been full of fresh energy, new work, and a special feature I’m thrilled about.

Recently, I had the honor of being highlighted in San Diego Voyager’s Hidden Gems series. This platform is dedicated to creatives and makers doing meaningful work in the community.
It was wonderful to share more about my artistic journey, my process, and the inspiration behind the pieces I create. I’m grateful for the platform and for all of you who cheer me on!
A Newly Redesigned Website — Explore by Category
This has always been a great time of year to reset and redesign my website. I am moving things around, adding new features, and archiving older work. Just in time for this gifting season, I’m launching my freshly redesigned website. It makes discovering my work easier, more intuitive, and… honestly… more fun!
Explore by categories including:
Small Works – Perfect for gifting, collecting, or adding a little spark to a cozy corner.
Abstract Paintings – Bold, expressive pieces created to make a statement in your space.
Zol Journals – Hand-painted, one-of-a-kind art journals for creatives, writers, and dream-keepers.
Ceramics – Sculptural and functional pieces with personality and warmth.
My hope is that you wander around my website the same way you’d explore my studio. A slow, curious look at everything with little surprises waiting in each corner.

Save the Date: First Friday // December 5th, 4–7 PM
New month, new look! I’ll be open for First Friday on December 5th from 4–7 PM, and I’d love to see you there.
I’m bringing:
A few brand new Zol Journals
A selection of small works (gift-giving season is here!)
And perhaps a surprise or two, because I like to keep things interesting.
If you’ve been wanting to pick up something special, take a look at new pieces, or just say hello, this is the perfect time.
The Joy of Gifting
As the holiday season approaches, gifting becomes a joyful tradition. It’s a time to show appreciation and love to those around us. Choosing the right gift can be a delightful experience.
Consider the unique items available on my website. Each piece is crafted with care and intention. They make perfect gifts for friends, family, or even yourself. Remember, self-gifting is a wonderful way to celebrate your own journey.
Explore the Creative Process
Art is not just about the final product. It’s about the journey of creation. My process involves exploring various mediums and techniques. Each piece tells a story, reflecting my thoughts and emotions.
I invite you to explore this journey with me. Visit my website to see the evolution of my work. You might find inspiration for your own creative endeavors.
Connect with the Community
Art has a unique way of bringing people together. I cherish the connections I make through my work. Whether it’s through exhibitions, workshops, or casual conversations, each interaction enriches my artistic journey.
I encourage you to engage with the art community. Attend local events, support fellow artists, and share your thoughts. Together, we can foster a vibrant creative environment.
In gratitude,
Susie



Very nice Susie Zol…I’m headed over to take a look now!🧡
