Susannah Kelly is a third generation artist
raised in New York City. She graduated with
a Bachelor or Fine Arts from Cooper Union
School of Art followed by a career and a
freelance illustrator for several advertising
and publishing companies.
Since 1999 Susannah has worked as an art
instructor for the Short Center South in
Sacramento, CA, a non-profit program for
developmentally disabled adults. Working
with this population has changed the way
she views art. “These individuals have no
idea what is appropriate or conventional in
art. It makes their work refreshing and has
inspired me to be more courageous in my
choice of themes and colors”.
The purpose of Susannah’s art and life is
create beauty in response to all that is
ordinary, ugly, and troubling in our world.
Contrary to popular opinion, we can live in a
beautiful world. Her practice of Nichiren
Buddhism supports these ideals.
