Beauty in the Midst of the COVID-19 Chaos

What do you do for stress relief? I paint for stress relief and plant spring flowers. The last two weeks I started a watercolor series of flowers. I started with pansies because this is the first year I haven’t had a pansy basket. 

What do you do for stress relief? I paint for stress relief and plant spring flowers. I planted my flower pots today and some of my flower beds.  Last month I started a watercolor series of flowers. I started with pansies because this is the first year I haven’t had a pansy basket. My favorite pansies are the deep bluish purple ones so that is where I started with my series.

About The Author

Dr. Susie

I reside in Northeast Ohio after traveling from coast to coast and living in both rural and metropolitan areas from Los Angeles to New York and of course the Midwest. I am an author and third generation artist and have been painting since the early 1960s. I have always cared deeply about animals, both domestic and wild, and the preservation of endangered species, has always been a concern as well. Most recently, I was involved in animal rescue work, finding homes for over 11,000 dogs and cats over the previous 12 years. It's only natural then, that I am drawn to animals and nature for my art subjects. I have also explored the metaphysical including creative imagination, Reiki, crystal healing, tai chi, feng shui and yoga and feel they add depth to my art as well. By creating an emotional connection for the viewer I hope my artwork will create concern and compassion for our natural world and its wild inhabitants, and help stimulate conservation efforts. My love of historic buildings and their conservation led me to doing the house portraits and my architectural works
