Art is a vehicle to explore our exterior and interior landscapes. Suzanne Frazier’s work centers around her emotional response to the world around her. She creates work that does not refer to any specific location or time. Each oil painting lives in its own place and time, free from a particular association. Viewing the world from a meditative practice, Suzanne calls herself a Contemplative Artist. To her, contemplative art is the product of creative expression rising from the pure joy of creating, grounded in a meditative connection to the radiance and perfection of spirit known only through one’s experience of being fully human. Suzanne Frazier integrates a BFA degree in Studio Arts with a BA degree in Philosophy to create a philosophical/meditative approach to art making. In 2015, Suzanne published, Contemplative Art, a book describing her meditative process. Since 1990, Suzanne has taught oil pastel drawing and water-based oil-painting classes at her studio. In 2022, Suzanne's painting, "Colterra Gardens" was purchased by the Colorado Women's Art Museum. https://www.suzannefrazierartist.com
