Silent Night
A snowy village at night — a red barn with a wreath, a white church with a glowing cross, and a large farmhouse lit warmly from within. Snow falls under a full moon.
"Every piece I sell goes to someone's home — and that means the world to me. Reach out and we'll talk through the details together."

Moonlit Cove
A lone rowboat overflowing with red flowers drifts on a moonlit lake at midnight. Reflected light shimmers across the deep blue water and white flowering shoreline.
Emerald Cathedral
Towering evergreens reach skyward through a mist, their branches lit from within by bright green light. A sense of height, stillness, and reverence fills this painting.
The Narrow Way
A quiet dirt path curves through towering dark evergreens into a luminous clearing ahead. The painting invites the viewer forward into the light.
Autumn Lane
A winding dirt road draws the eye through towering trees dressed in autumn copper and gold. Fallen leaves line the path in warm rust and amber tones.
Stargazer
A full moon rises through a constellation-dotted sky, purple aurora blooming around it, over a silhouetted pine treeline. Gold star clusters glow in the darkness.
Forest Floor
Whimsical mushrooms of all sizes grow at the base of ancient trees, bathed in golden bokeh light filtering through the canopy above. Detailed and dreamlike.
Meadow Veil
Sun-drenched birch trees grow beside a rustic wooden fence with yellow wildflowers blooming at its base. The sky peeks through in blue and white behind lush green leaves.
Three Blooms
Three loose, expressive pink peonies painted with palette knife energy on an olive-green background. Soft, bold, and full of life.
Whispers of Peace
Striking black-and-white birch trunks rise from a misty, luminous green forest floor. Bold contrast and elegant simplicity.
Crimson Dusk
A dramatic winter scene — dead trees and a frozen pond beneath a deep crimson and purple sky. Hauntingly beautiful and atmospheric.
A Walk in Winter
Tiny silhouettes of a parent and two children walk a snow-covered path through bare winter trees. Birds circle overhead. Peaceful, tender, and full of meaning.
Heart of Alaska
Painted after a journey up the coast of British Columbia into Alaska — the place Susan was born and raised. A deeply personal tribute to her homeland and to her mother, whose ashes were scattered in the ocean waters where her parents once fished. Dense evergreens rise into the mist, holding the memory of a place that lives in her heart.
Wildflower Heart
A generous bouquet of wildflowers — purple, pink, yellow, white, and red — spills exuberantly from a simple gray pitcher, each bloom painted with individual dots of color that seem to dance off the canvas. The flowers overflow far beyond the vase that holds them, as if joy itself cannot be contained. This is what love looks like when it has no edges. Painted in acrylic with a pointillist touch, this piece celebrates color, abundance, and the wild beauty of flowers that grow wherever they please.
Indiana Winter
A historic red round barn near Huntington, Indiana stands quiet beneath a heavy snowfall. A bare weeping tree leans gently beside it, its branches dusted white, while a split-rail fence draws the eye toward the barn’s curved walls and snow-capped cupola. Soft grey-blue light fills the sky — the kind of stillness that only comes after a deep Indiana snow. Painted in acrylic.
Between the Storms Stillness
Painted for her son as a gift of hope — a reminder that after every storm, stillness returns. Storm clouds billow and break over a quiet lake, while a blaze of autumn trees glows warm gold and orange along the far shore. The water holds the sky perfectly, calm and still, just waiting. For a young man who loves to fish, this is his happy place — the one that waited for him through months of hospital walls and hard days, reminding him it would always be there. A mother’s love, painted in acrylic.
Whispers of Ethereal Pines
A deeply personal series born from a love of home. Susan grew up in British Columbia, Canada — a landscape defined by towering evergreens, misty mornings, and forests that feel ancient and alive. She painted this as a triptych — three large canvases, each slightly different but unmistakably the same forest — one for each of her sisters and one for her own home. When her daughter saw them, she asked for one too. Deep green pines emerge from a luminous, mist-white sky, growing softer and more ethereal the further back they reach — as if the forest goes on forever. These pieces belong to family.
Mr. Kitty
A charming ivy-covered cottage glows warmly at dusk — a bright red door, blue-trimmed windows, and a little café table set for one. Tucked into the golden light of a lantern near the doorstep lies a small orange cat, perfectly content, right where he belongs. This is Mr. Kitty — a street cat who found his way home, spent months healing, and then spent every day after that simply being happy. This painting is a love letter to him: a reminder that home is everything, that rescued animals give back far more than they receive, and that joy can curl up in the smallest of places. Painted in acrylic.
Woodland Fairy
Deep in a magical forest, a tiny fairy in a flowing purple gown perches on a moss-covered branch and simply pauses — taking it all in. Glowing mushrooms with pink caps and golden undersides light the night around her, while hundreds of luminous orbs drift through a deep teal sky like fireflies or forest spirits in motion. A dragonfly hovers nearby, part of the magic. This painting is an invitation to slow down, to notice the wonder that surrounds us when we stop long enough to look. The forest is alive, and it has always been waiting for you. Painted in acrylic.
Limitless
Standing at the base of ancient giants and looking skyward, this painting captures the breathtaking scale of towering old-growth trees. Massive trunks rise in every direction, their bark warm and deeply textured, while lush green branches filter a soft blue sky above. The upward perspective invites the viewer to look beyond what is seen — a reminder that greatness has no ceiling, and neither do you. Painted in acrylic.
