Susan A. Wenz-Denise - Profile
<p>Hi. My name is Susan Wenz-Denise and I am a fine artist with a BFA degree in Studio Art, and a minor concentration in Art History.</p>
<p>I started painting when I was in junior high school and showed a natural tendency to be artistic. Soon I amazed my teachers and was fortunate enough to participate in a newly founded program for advanced art classes in 8th grade. Throughout my high school career I excelled past all my teachers’ expectations by winning numerous awards, and was sent off to college to study art after my senior AP art teacher told my parents I was “a teacher’s dream come true”.</p>
<p>I attended the College of New Rochelle in New Rochelle, NY for Studio Art where my painting skills were refined and my conceptual sensitivities matured. Since graduating, I have exhibited a series of my work in two NYC galleries and am now working on a new series of oil paintings. I plan to begin exhibiting again by Autumn 2001.</p>
<p>An oil painter by heart, I also find fulfillment in making the rest of my life outside my artwork as creative as possible. My new husband would agree that our life together is very interesting, as we are always doing something new and creative. When I am not painting, I enjoy writing, quilting, sewing, cooking, reading, and web design.</p>
<p>I came across Suite101.com while researching ways I could gain experience as a web editor. While surfing through, and understanding the mission of the site, I realized that Suite 101 is a great online community for people to learn more about what they have to offer each other. In this respect, I am glad to have found a forum to teach people about what I do best – Oil Painting!</p>
