Suzanne Reed Fine
Artist’s Statement

For me there is nothing more exciting than to immerse myself in the process of creating and capturing an idea
with a few simple marks. My background in graphic design affords me the freedom to let the painting naturally
evolve. Striving for simplicity is something that I continually work towards  by editing you truly capture the
essence of your subject.

The natural crisp light and vibrant colors of the Southwest have always been an inspiration in my paintings.
Though I work with all forms of water media, acrylics have become my favorite, as they portray these same two
characteristics. I enjoy the endless possibilities of how the colors interact and the effects and textures they create.
I look for areas in the painting to accentuate by pushing and pulling the values exposing layers to create depth
is an exciting process for me.

Inspiration comes to me from many places, whether seen, dreamt, read or heard. Each piece that I create has its
own story transforming itself from a beginning spark in my imagination to the conclusion on the canvas.
