![]() ![]() If you are one who has one of her works hanging on your wall you know that seeing it in person is so different than online because of the texture Susan often employed. Therefore we were not able to arrange a show but there is still so much to do in showing Susan's work. He is so busy and so was Susan with various projects. Susan was working with her good friend and fellow artist Bernard Hoyes to arrange for a show in 2020. ![]() Although the show is over youĬan still enjoy the artwork and the slide show which can be seen on the retrospective web site. If you came to see our presentation of How it Was Then and How It Is Now along with the rest of the 2018 Venice Art Walk we know you enjoyed it because of all the positive comments and news paper coverage. In some subtle or stark way things are really the same. Is look at it in a certain way and suddenly you'll see it. Even if something, a place, or a person, it could be anything, looks unrecognizable all you have to do We want to show you that even though things change other things stay the same. On opening night we not only showed the watercolors but there were other interesting presentations. If you were able to come see it in person we are glad and thank you. We were like sardines in a can but we had a good time eating and drinking, meeting and making friends while reminiscing about Venice and talking about the upcoming event A Retrospective - How It Was Then, How It Is Now. On Januone of these mixers was held in a sushi restaurant & bar on Windward Circle. To kick off this event there had been a number of gatherings of artists, art lovers and other interested people. This is where Susan first showed them in 1979, just a few years after Bob and Mary Goodfader opened the book store. The show was hosted by Small World Books & Sidewalk Cafe in Venice. The show opened on Maand the response was encouraging. The retrospective exhibition of Susan's Venice and Santa Monica watercolors, as part of the 2018 Venice Art Crawl, was a success. It was sad when the landlord ended all of that, but the spirit lives on as will our memory of Susan and the amazing work she produced. There was always so much going on at Infinity Studio. Many film crews asked to photograph the front garden of the studio, which was also an art installation. Once a social media company contracted to photograph their models in the studio. The ecclectic feel and the look of all the interesting things, which counterpointed and showed off her work, were noticed by others, some of whom believed this was an excellent location for photo shoots. Those who lived and worked with Susan felt it every time they entered the studio. Every object and decorration in Infinity Studip was specifically placed to give an impression and make a statement. ![]() Infinity Studio, as it was for over forty years, lives on in these and other pages which document what was actually Susan's biggest art installation. She will be missed but as long as we remember her she will in some way remain with us. May this and the associated web sites and the art work featured therein stand as a legacy to Susan's love of art, painting in perticular, and her philosophy which included her watchword: painting for health. ![]() Susan's work is still displayed on the walls of the new space and enjoyed every day. Infinity Studio is still here in Santa Monica, not far from the beach. Things had changed with the loss of the original studio space but for five years we all kept it going. Sadly, in the spring of '21 Susan died in her sleep, quietly, and peacefully. Infinity Studio opened in 1977 and more than four decades later, into 2021, Susan was still a working artist - after all this time because she loved painting.
