Suzy
earned her Bachelor's degree in Fine Art and Art Education at The
Pratt Institute in New York in 1968. She taught in Connecticut
until marrying Bob Andron, an architect, who brought her to Raleigh
in the early 70's.
In 1980 Suzy earned a Masters
Degree in Landscape Architecture at NCSU. She taught interior
design at UNC-Greensboro and later at Meredith College, all the
while developing her unique style of painting. After teaching in
the Art Department at Meredith, she retired permanently to devote
full time to her artistic techniques and expressions.
In the 90s, Suzy began
participating in numerous competitions and auctions around North
Carolina and neighboring states, receiving many honors for her work.
She has re-invented her work by expanding into Polytychs since
2001. Suzy has pieces all over the world in private collections.
Suzy's polytychs have now started to
be recognized. They have ranged from 2 or 3 connected panels (of
highly textured abstract acrylic compositions on canvas) to as many
as 11 contiguous panels in a commissioned giant wall mural, to a
recent Polytych with 16 canvases. Suzy continues to explore the
excitement that comes from manipulating the geometry of attached
canvases and the synergy of multiple parts embellishing the fullness
of an expression.
