| Susan Sommer | |
After graduating from Moore, I moved to NYC where I continued to paint full time. I now maintain studios in NYC and in the Hudson Valley region of New York State. For nearly 40 years I have been practicing traditional oil painting methods to explore reductive abstraction inspired by the rhythms of color in nature. |

| About the Artist | |
For close to four decades, Susan Sommer has been expressing her moods, observations, and insights in painting and drawing. She divides her time and focus primarily in the Hudson Valley, the West Indies, and Manhattan. Her work is at its most provocative when she develops an improvisational visual treatment of dance rhythms, gentle breezes, brisk winds and lyrical expressons on canvas or paper in color and design. Her work has engendered a strong response from viewers including collectors in this country and abroad. Sommer's painting is in the de Saisset Museum of the University of Santa Clara, California and in the Government House on the island of Saint Vincent, WI. Her work may also be seen at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN, the Albuquerque Museum of Art & History, and other public areas. |
