My name is Suzanne! I was born and raised in Iraq. I started painting at an early age. My early memories of art include visiting various art galleries in Iraq with my dad. I had the privilege of meeting some of the Pioneers of abstract painting in Iraq such as Jamil Hamoudi, Layla Al-Attar, and Sabih Naama. I remember vividly how excited I felt to receive feedback and autographs from these famous artists. Despite all the monumental challenges that came with growing up in Iraq, I was able to find joy in creating art. In the midst of all of that, I created my own definition of beauty. Creating art was my sanctuary. In 2005 I had to leave my whole life behind along with all my paintings and start a new life in Canada. I had to put all my creative dreams on hold as I was immersing myself in a new culture. In 2012 I received my bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering and I have been working in this field since. After settling down in my career and life, I decided it was time to embark on my art journey again. I went to the Alberta College of Art and Design and took Drawing and Painting Courses. It was a good way to get back into the art scene. Since then, I have been painting every evening, exploring new techniques and playing with new media. I use acrylic paint, gesso, molding paste, crackling paste, and marble dust. I love to create textured paintings. I am fascinated by textures. It gives my painting a 3rd dimension and a lively feel. It is hard to contain what inspires me. I am inspired by shapes, colors, events, feelings. I am also inspired by the infinitely exquisite shapes and colors and events of nature. I love the use of gold and silver as they add elegance to my paintings. Each one of my paintings conveys a message of gratitude, hope, beauty, and perseverance. There is beauty everywhere, and it is up to us to find it in the humblest things. Beauty is the illumination of our perception of the world. Dreams come true through belief and perseverance. I hope you find elegance, inspiration, and empowerment in the artworks that I offer.
