Susan Gardner is a Fine Arts (BFA) graduate of the University of South Alabama where she concentrated on painting and sculpture.  She has developed her art studying abroad in France for the past five summers.  She has studied at workshops of internationally known watercolorists Charles Reid and Don Andrews.  Susan's extensive training has revealed itself at numerous exhibitions where she is frequently rewarded with recognition by her peers.

Susan's favorite medium is watercolor but she is also accomplished in oils and acrylics.  Her gulf coast home, with stunning natural beauty and light all around, provides an inspirational back drop for this artists' work and for her students.

Susan is pictured here with her husband, Cecil and golden retrievers Teak and Dory, aboard their 43 foot cutter.
