Harbingers of Spring 2019, pastel
Susan Sarabasha
“All my recent pieces are examples of how I view the world. Strong light and dark shadows have always fascinated me, leading to creations which may be meditative in mood, giving the viewer an occasion of peace and beauty. I am encapsulating an ephemeral moment in time – the sun will move, clouds may obscure the direct light, the animal will move away and disappear into the woods. My goal is to share these deep feelings through my paintings.” https://www.susansarabasha.com/about
In pastel, charcoal, watercolor, and pencil, Susan creates beautiful images of animals and landscapes. She hopes her work will bear witness to what has been too often destroyed or hidden by the noise and constructions of modern-day life.
The exhibition will be in the Lifelong Gallery from March through the end of May.
(See cover of the Lifelong Spring 2024 catalog for another example of Susan’s work)
