Susan’s work is often narrative and frequently whimsical. She anthropomorphizes just about everything, and incorporates myths and archetypes into many of her pieces. She works mostly in stoneware and likes transformation, irony, juxtaposition, and muscular thighs.

Susan lives in Uptown New Orleans and can often be seen riding her bike Crash Landing to the gym.
