Artist Bio:

Susan is a member of the South Haven Center for the Arts, Berrien Art Guild and a Krasl docent. She currently has a studio at the Box Factory in St. Joseph. Susan also performs and directs the South Haven Senior Services readers theatre group.

 

Susan discovered the cyanotype art process from a Krasl workshop by artist Casey Roberts and began experimenting with different objects on treated watercolor paper. It’s a reminder of how we all leave
a print of our lives, personalized and one of a kind.

 

The cyanotype process was developed in 1842 by
Sir John Herchel. The cyano reaction produces the cyan-blue pigment ferric ferricyanide (also known
as Prussian blue), a pigment found in many high-end watercolors, oil and acrylic paints.
