"The Good Life" New Work by Susan Cushing

4 North Main Gallery is pleased to present the art opening of “The Good Life”, new work by Susan Cushing. Opening Reception: Saturday, September 22nd 5-8 pm.

Susan's new work is a highly stylized series of narrative landscapes. Evocative of the world of casual elegance Susan's paintings beautifully capture the colors and themes of summer on canvas. You are drawn into a world of beauty and glamour where you willingly participate with stylish people, living an enchanted life, in elegant settings.

Susan’s describes her work as “Turning up the volume on color, and using shadow and reflection to create abstract shapes within real settings is what interests me. I love to play with the strong light at the beginning and end of the day to create extreme patterns -- allowing the abstract shapes to shine through as the main subject of the paintings. The colors are saturated. The value is turned way up. The richness of color portrays the rich textures of life. ”
