I met Susan Crawford a number of years ago, and fell in love with her work the instant I saw it.  I knew, immediately that I wanted it to be a part of my everyday experience.  I proceeded to buy five of her paintings for my home.  My daughter (a young adult) has two of Susan's works gracing her apartment.

We have been blessed to have Susan's artwork on the walls of our offices.  In fact, therapy begins for people as soon as they enter the front door of our suite.  Patients are stuck by the vibrancy and life-affirming quality of her art.  The three dimensionality of Susan's paintings surprises and delights people.  Over and over again we hear remarks such as, "I would love to crawl inside that painting because it makes me feel so alive," or " I want to be there", or "it's impossible for me to stay sad/depressed/angry in the presence of these paintings".  Although we are not an art gallery, people want to purchase her works for themselves and Susan can barely keep up with the demand.
