Suzanne Clements is a fulltime fine artist working from
the sunny seaside town of Melbourne, Florida. Her recent
transition to the sunshine state has helped to push
her work into new directions. Primarily a figurative
painter, she builds lush storylines and narratives with
each canvas. Her subjects convey deep emotion through
their posture and expression, while her strongly modern
and graphical style lends a unique perspective to each
work.
She was first inspired to the visual
arts by her grandfather, a sculptor based in Ontario,
Canada who successfully raised five children using his
creative skills. Having grown up in a family surrounded
by artistic people she was encouraged to reach out and
try new things and never to assume failure. Over time
she has worked as an illustrator, designer, and now
successfully as a fulltime painter.
Suzanne's work has been shown nationally
since 1998 and she has numerous pieces in private collections
across the country and the world including Australia
and Canada.
