Whatever the subject matter, Susanne’s paintings usually work into a series because the soul of the image cannot be translated in just one painting, but must be thoroughly explored. Susanne Darius is an innovative emerging West Coast artist. Whether an image is portrayed in landscape or as an abstract depends on the creative process and the artist’s eye. The warm Spanish countryside has influenced Darius’ work by transforming and cementing her landscape style, but the mercurial artistic path sometimes leads to stunning rock faces with protruding sculpture or very modern representations of birch trees on a dark ground.
