Introducing Susanna Schwartz.

A terrific painter of many subjects, check out this artist's interiors -- colorful and cozy New York apartment interiors in fact; a beloved subject for many of you readers and done so beautifully here in oil, in gouache, and in an interesting technique of gouache over inkjet prints.

Schwartz's images have a delightful way of shifting from clearly describing objects and spaces to allowing these same features to dissolve; dissolve into light, into planes, into sheer lovely painty-ness.

This is great stuff. Ms. Schwartz's work is sweet and heartwarming. It is art as art should be, that is, it is inspirational!
