Susan Seitz Studio

Art Camp for Kids

New this summer ... enjoyed an amazing experience with some very talented children! Art Camp was offered to a small group of children to experience a wide variety of activities during a week at the studio. The end of the camp was celebrated by inviting friends & family to view the spectacular creations that were hung in the art studio. Children & parents were loving the results and look forward to the next opportunity to experience creativity at Susan Seitz Studio!

Easter Seals Painting ~ "Day of Hope"












Commissioned Piece
4' x 7' acrylic on canvas

prints available

I was given an amazing opportunity this past spring to create a painting for Easter Seals. The original was auctioned off in Toronto at a fund raising event and is now hanging in the V SPA in Kincardine Ontario. I wrote this poem to go with the painting:

"Day of Hope"

A young girl faces towards the sun.
Eyes closed, she imagines and believes transformation is within reach.
Arms extended, the wind lifting her spirits, a glow emanates from within.
She smiles.
In just one hour, this young girl will find the courage and strength to outshine her limits, to go where she never thought possible.
Today, this girl will climb the ropes for the first time in her life.
When she reaches the top, she will look down upon doubt and cast it aside.
For today, this young girl has been given a gift that will last a lifetime, a gift that will make her smile each time she calls upon her memories.
On this day, the gift of hope will be treasured and kept close to her heart forever...

Apple Blossoms

numbered prints available
...
There is something to be said about apple blossoms. A sign that a new season is approaching. I took this photo on our 1 1/2 acre property that hosts a very old apple tree. I just love her! She is a great inspiration and I'm hoping to paint from these images in the next few months.

Just Getting Started

This will be fun ... just need some time to set up my space that will bring you updated information on where I'm going in the art world! Come back soon!
