Susannah Leighton





My creative life began early, at the knee of my colorful and artistic grandmother. She taught me to knit, to sculpt in clay and to embroider in gold—all these decades later I continue to thrive in those media and many more. My greatest love is painting in oils. More recently I’ve become fluent in watercolor, and drawing always serves as a primary underlying force in my work. I can paint just about anything, and often get commissioned to make images I wouldn’t otherwise choose. But my favorite work captures the spiritually rich landscape of the Hudson Valley—I will never tire of calling this part of the world my home.
