Susan B. Viemeister

PAINTING PRACTISE

The seen world inspires Susan B. Viemeister- how the light glances through leaves, the richness and turn of value and color in a cluster of fruit or the subtle poetry of haze in the distant layers of mountains, all of it can be galvanized by light, as a unique moment in time.

Light creates evocative moments, poetic interplays of objects in the seen world, a presence. With her paintings Viemeister hopes to invite viewers into moments of quiet and contemplation, offering a shared experience of emotion, beauty and presence through the expression in the art work.

Viemeister uses painting mediums, sketchbook, watercolors and camera to explore our environment in search of a certain interplay of light and elements that can evoke a feeling or tell a store. She is always inspired by how light intermingles in a scene, bringing the scene to life.

Susan B. Viemeister spent over three decades in Virginia as a landscape designer, applying her artistic sensibilities in shaping the natural world for her clients. Now living in Western North Carolina with her husband and dogs, she devotes her creative energy to painting, sketching and developing her garden.
