My studio is a part of a community studio including my husbands and daughters studios and 7 others. We also have a gallery that is so fun, you enter through a phone booth! The studios and “family” gallery include over 200 pieces of original artwork.
As you view my abstract art you will learn that it is not created in the loose way that most abstracts seem to be. I create it in an organized, planned, almost architectural way, derived from my past experience as a graphic designer when preparing a layout for an ad. Precise drawings are always part of my process. Inspiration for my work comes from my love for details and shapes from things around me, many times jewelry pieces from fellow artists. I’ll look at something small and envision it really large on a wall. Many times I’ll add numbers because they seem to add thought or purpose and a striking presence to the abstract space. I have stretched many canvases but more recently enjoy the raw look of wood panels, layering and sanding the paint. This also led me to loosen up lines and fall in love with imperfections. I add dimension to my work by sculpting wood pieces and placing them within windows of my panels. I feel like these carved pieces are a bit of an adventure, both in allowing me to work three dimensionally and also to step away from my paints, easel and studio and work in my husband’s art studio full of power tools. I have always been intrigued with the combination of painting and sculpture.

About the ArtistYour Tour Guide
Susie Levin
I was raised in Waterloo, Iowa and I became involved in art at a very young age. I studied fine art and graphic design, and received my BA from the College of Design at Iowa State University. After moving to Chicago, I worked in advertising but transitioned to fine art and a career as a painter. I has been creating abstract paintings for over 30 years now. I consider myself self taught in the area of abstract painting and wood carving. My graphic design days definitely have had an impact on how I carefully plan and design each piece.
Over the years, I have exhibited nationwide in numerous galleries and public exhibitions and my work has become a part of many private and corporate collections
