ABOUT THE ARTIST

Susan Ullman, born in Tennessee, has resided in New York City for most of her life. She has travelled extensively and has developed an appreciation of other ethnic groups and their art as it relates to their culture. Mexican, American Indian and Japanese art have had a strong influence on her art from an early age.

The artist holds an M.F.A. from Columbia University. She also studied at the Art Students' League where she began to become inspired by several well-known artists. Among these artists were Matisse, Chagall and Klee. From an early age, the artist recalls having a love of paper and the collage effect. Ullman also derives her inspiration from a deep desire to retain a sense of magic and fantasy within her life. She translates these sensibilities through her use of handmade papers and various paints and pastels, to create a colorful, rhythmic environment. She defies tradition by stretching her materials beyond conventional limits. Her papers are superimposed on a painted background, and layered to evoke a magical, dream-like effect. The artist is playful with her materials and is not afraid to take risks.

Ullman has a background in dance. She is also an accomplished ceramic artist, professional baker, and published poet. She has developed her own style of colorful movement and magical imagery. Her work has been exhibited extensively, both nationally and internationally. It has appeared in museums and private corporate collections. She has had many solo exhibitions in prominent galleries in the New York area. less
