Allow me to introduce myself and my work.
I’m a mixed media artist. I use paper, found objects, paints (including black-light), inks, oil-based crayons, charcoal, pretty much any material designed for 2-D art. I love painting plein aire landscapes, journaling, symbolic portraiture (where the design incorporates personal symbols of the subject), abstracts and self-portraits (both literally and emotionally). I also love designing boxes and other utilitarian based objects. I sometimes use Photoshop to design and create paintings that may stand on their own or to be used as the foundation for a large canvas.
I originally created this website as a Gallery, but realize it serves better as a blog that incudes my day to day creative process as well as a gallery of finished paintings. My blog is titled ‘All Over the Place Artist’ (allovertheplaceartist.blog). All my professional life I’ve been told that I should focus on one subject, one medium, one style and get good at one thing, as I am all over the place! I’ve decided to accept this as fact, because I AM! I am not willing to be just one thing. Life is too much fun and has too many possibilities and life is wonderfully ALL OVER THE PLACE!
Currently living in Charlottesville, Virginia, I’ve lived ‘all over the place’ to include, Manhattan, Los Angeles, Chicago, Phoenix, South Lake Tahoe, Alexandria, Virginia Beach, Coos Bay, Minneapolis and more. I’ve been a teacher, a muralist, an art therapist, a scenic designer and a fine artist/designer working independently. I have also managed a gallery and conducted a creative’s group.
Althought I pretty much use myself as my audience, I want you to know I appreciate your precious time and hope that I may inspire you in many ways.

Dear Susan,
I have just read your blog on “metamorphosis of a woman”. I have an identical painting to #2 entitled “papellan”.
I bought it at Studio 42 in Los Gatos ten years ago. Is this something different? We have it in our bedroom and love it. Is there a current value that we could use for insurance purposes?

Dear H. Wolfe,
Thank you for your comment. I would love to receive a snap shot of the painting and verify which image it is in the metamorphosis series. Literally, I have a truck arriving tomorrow to move us to Virginia Beach, so it may take a week to respond back to you. I will do my best to answer your questions and provide you with a certificate of authenticity. Please send the image to kriegart@aol.com
Thank you, SK

Hi, Susan. I have loved your art since I discovered it eight years ago. I tried to go to your other site and shop, but it said it was under construction and would be back up in 2010. Where can I shop for your art or prints these days?

Hi Susan I bought Benediction and another print here in South Africa early 2000’s. I so love these pictures, they hung in my lounge in my victorian cottage in Cape Town and often were the talking point of after dinner conversations. I moved to London for 4 years and everything went into storage. On my return, unpacking I fell in love with them all over again.
It was only this evening the light fell on one of them in a certain way and I picked up a signature. I googled
mmmmk”hey presto” this site appeared! I was so excited to finally find out a bit more about the paintings (well the one) and read up on you.

Hi Susan
I purchased your Benediction and Harmony from you and you sent them to me in South Africa. I fall more in love with my paintings on a daily basis. I am lookinf for your “Forever Love” print and once again I am not able to get it. I have a special spot in my house I would like to put it. Please let me know if you are able to help.
Kind regards

Hi Davina
I remember your purchase and I am happy you are enjoying them. At this time, there are no available prints of my work. I hope there will be in the future, but I can’t be more specific. I know that’s not helpful, but I will keep in touch with you.
Sincerely,
Susan Krieg
