Practicing her craft as an artist since the early 1970’s, Susan Albers has explored many mediums, winning numerous awards for her pastel drawings of the canyon country of the American Southwest.

From her impressionistic landscapes and portraits in oils, constructed large multi medium compositions of fabric, paint, natural materials and metallic leaf to her exciting work as a creative photographer, Susan Albers is always reaching for new methods to express her creative intention in both, her artwork and teachings.

A certified teacher of art, Susan introduces intuitive techniques in her studio and in the field. Her recent workshop, “Painting Beyond the Brush,” explores abstract painting with alternative tools using many common items and encourages her students to allow their expressive ideas to flow to the surface without struggling with a preconceived notion of “proper brush technique”.
