Susan Stefanski
Award-winning artist Susan Stefanski has studied art at Villanova University and local art centers since 1999. Susan is drawn to representational painting in oil, watercolor, and pastel. Painting is spiritual and serene and promotes a feeling of contentment and joy to be shared with others. She has had solo shows at the Jenkins Arboruitum, Great Wayne Frame Up, Thomas Moser Gallery, and Villanova University, resulting in several commissions including one to paint Irish landscapes to cover the walls of a Philadelphia restaurant.
Her representational work, predominately landscapes, captures light, color, and feelings falling under an umbrella of “God’s Gifts.” Susan took second place at the Brandywine Plein Air Festival for “Morning Warmth, Point Lookout.” She won the Marie Brobeil Memorial Award in the DVAL Jenkins Arboretum Exhibition for her painting “Groundcover,” and First Place for “Casablanca’s and Fruit” for DVAL Penn Med Valley Forge among others.
She is in the Villanova University Art Collection along with many private collections. Susan is a member of ARTsisters, Delaware Valley Art League and Haverford Craftsmen’s Guild, and Master Artisian.
