Sue Canuteson is an abstract mixed media artist based in Alexandria, Virginia. Canuteson’s work has been exhibited in various galleries in the Washington, DC area and across the country since 2018.
Organic shapes and lines as well as innate marks are Canuteson’s primary inspiration. Her interest lies in exploring the unique nature of different shapes, their relation to one another, and the feelings that conveys. Canuteson is also fascinated by all kinds of lines and the impactful ways they contribute to a composition. She finds that she is particularly drawn to colors, marks, and patterns in early African art and sees that influence in some of her work.
Canuteson works on paper as well as canvas and panel — in a range of media (acrylics, inks, collage, charcoal/graphite and oil sticks/pastels). Her ultimate goal is to create a cohesive painting that touches some in the most inexplicable ways.
