Artist Statement for Susan Andreasen

“EcoArtist” Susan Andreasen Drives Green Awareness in South Florida
Office: 561.642.2224 or cell: 561.234.0117:www.sandreasen.com

Susan Andreasen is an “EcoArtist,” environmentalist and endangered species advocate who is has devoted her career to promoting green consumerism and environmental awareness thorough her artwork. Based in South Florida, Susan has been working on ecologically motivated artistry for nearly a decade in order to drive her purpose of saving endangered wildlife, and ultimately preserving the environment as a whole. A portion of the sales price of every Susan Andreasen paining sold is donated to an environmental or endangered species related charity.
Susan’s "EcoArt" has been displayed in numerous galleries across the United States including, but not limited:

Some of Susan Andreasen's well-known clients include The White House, the CBS Early Show, Miami Metro Zoo, Palm Beach Zoo, Save the Manatee Club, Office Depot, SeaWorld and the Norton Museum of Art. Susan’s paintings are also displayed on 68 cruise ships worldwide. These paintings are signed serigraphs.
Melding traditional art and nature art has been successfully achieved by Susan who regularly teaches her methods to students in workshops across South Florida. This method of fusing wildlife art and contemporary art has given birth to new art form pioneered by Susan called "EcoArt." Susan believes that the techniques and ideas of contemporary art can, and should, be applied to the subject matter of wildlife. By portraying wildlife through modern artistic form, Susan hopes to raise public awareness of the needs of the environment and the reality of which animals are on the brink of extinction. Essentially, Susan’s goal is to visit schools and museums, lecturing students on the natural art of wild animals and the eco-sphere using her documented experience as a guide and resource.
"In the Twenty-First Century, I believe man and art have become alienated from nature,” says Susan. “By denying nature, we deny a part of ourselves and an appreciation of nature, thus preventing man from realizing his full potential. By illuminating the devastation of our environment I hope recruit and enliven future dedicated environmentalists to continue this noble cause.”
It has become a very popular subject for Susan and art museums and the universal art world has recognized wildlife art (i.e.: viewing all animals as art-worthy subjects, and to accept wildlife and nature art as a contemporary art form). Susan has been playing a very exciting card to this trend by raising awareness of endangered species and humanity’s destruction of the environment through her own commissioned artworks focusing on this respective subject.
Like many other artist, Susan has a deep desire to recreate the natural wonders of our world. My contemporaries would consider me an “EcoArtist”. I feel that most museums and galleries have failed to capture the imagination of the general public due to an inability to generate an appreciation/awareness of man’s co-existence and interdependence with nature.
Throughout her career, Susan has focused her work on creatures from the endangered species list and maintains a unique method of layering oils. While this may sound similar to watercolor style, it creates a non-translucent transparent layering effect that Susan believes is much more vibrant and appealing than the standard oil painting style.www.sandreasen.com
