Susan Palys

I make paintings of places, the natural world and semi-abstract subjects using a variety of water media. I work in a realistic, emotive style that is  inspired by memories, travel experiences and nature so that the beauty that is present in everyday life is “center stage”  and can provide a calm, restorative and hopeful moment to viewers. 

 

My art education began in high school and continued at Buffalo State College, where I earned a BS in Art Education. Teaching art in private, elementary schools and  in community education kept my art journey alive, while I worked in public service for 20 years. Upon retirement, I dedicated my efforts to pursuing the art career of my dreams.

 

My professional memberships include Juried Artists status, in Watercolor, of the Arts & Craftsmen Guild of The Historic Roycroft Campus; Exhibiting Member status in the Buffalo Society of Artists; Signature Member Status of Niagara Frontier Watercolor Society.

Additional memberships I am active in include the Fine Arts League of Buffalo,  The West Seneca Art Society and the East Aurora Art Society.

 

Juried exhibitions which included my work are: Kenan Center Niagara Frontier Regional Artists Exhibition; The 123rd,124th, & 126 Catalogue Exhibition of Buffalo Art Society; multiple Exhibitions of the Niagara Frontier Watercolor Society; and the Niagara Frontier Watercolor Society Fall 2020, Spring 2021 Member’s Water Media Exhibitions.
