Formally trained at the Savannah College of Art and Design, Suzanne Simmons Smith paints and lives in North Palm Beach, FL.

A love for Western architecture combined with Oriental form and brush stroke, gives her work a quality designed to tease the viewer's imagination.
Through studies with Caesar Cirigliano, Suzanne has developed a style that plays upon opposites. Bathed in light and saturated with color, her paintings capture the underlying tension between the mechanics of
man made structures and the softness of nature.

In order to explore various techniques, Suzanne has studied with Irving Shapiro, Tom Lynch, Charles
Sovek, Joan Wong, Cleve Smith, Don Anderson, and most recently with Caesar
Cirigliano, a student of John Sloan of the Ash Can School and the renowned
Sumi-e Master Moto-Oi. |
Strict adherence to the principles of line, balance, value and color allows her to go beyond the representational quality to paint poetry on canvas.
Her award winning paintings are in numerous public and private collections. |
