Artist Susan Mauck describes her oil and pastel work as impressionistic with a contemporary edge. Her imagery is strong in color and movement, yet possesses a quiet sensitivity. A studio artist at heart, works from life as much as possible. Her passion for painting the figure is evident in her work.
I love it when the drawing shows through it reveals a little peek at the process. Every mark is important. Every stroke should mean something.
I strive to capture a gesture, a look, the turn of a head as if time has stood still for just that moment.
