| Susan Adler George |

I was born in Baltimore on February 5th and raised in Annapolis Maryland, where I sat on clay hillsides molding the earth and baking it in the sun. Living a great distance from other children, I made friends with art, dance and drama. I created and toured little plays in the six-room schoolhouse that I attended. Eventually, I studied dance at Peabody Conservatory of Music and performed on a local radio show. As an adult, I became a published poet, author and professional artist and founded Through The Hands of Women, a non-profit art gallery.

| About the Artist |
My art has been influenced by the contradictions of my quirky and sometimes tragic background. My mother dared to be the first Jewish crossing guard in Annapolis Maryland. My father‘s father joined the circus during the depression after his business partner’s suicide. I find release and joy in my art-painting whimsical scenes with uplifting colors and often- humorous movement.
My canvases are dominated with bold color and influenced by an infatuation with quirky spatial possibilities. I have carried with me from my background in theatre, dance and writing, a need to find the story behind the form. I invading the unorthodox, exploring wit and the physical and emotional range persists in my work.
“ART NOT ONLY REPORTS OUR DIFFERENT VISIONS OF OUR WORLD, BUT CREATES NEW WORLDS AND NEW VISIONS.” Susan Adler George
