Dr Suzanne

ARTIST | TEACHER | COACH | MENTOR

 

 

Dr Suzanne Moss is a painter, potter, writer, teacher, coach and mentor. She began her teaching career at The Australian National University School of Art & Design in 2006 at the outset of her Doctorate in Visual Arts.

Suzanne researched the painting of light extensively, examining art internationally and creating a large body of geometric abstract paintings. Luminous and meditative, her paintings have been exhibited in solo and curated group exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Hobart. 

Suzanne experienced major health and personal crises in 2011-12. During this extremely stressful time, an epiphany led her to experience art-making in a profoundly calming way, which in turn sparked the development of her unique methods.

Over the last 15 years, Suzanne has taught and refined her methods in private sessions, small-group workshops, retreats and comprehensive solo programs.

‘The practices used in these courses facilitate the creation of beauty – something most people believe they are not capable of expressing.’

Suzanne’s paintings are held in public and private collections in Australia and abroad. See a reel of her artwork HERE.
