SUMMARY:Susan Aamot Exhibit and Reception at LCAA
DESCRIPTION:Artist Reception: Sunday\, June 7\, 1:30-4pm \nSusan Lea Aamot [Brush] \nBorn the daughter of very creative and antiestablishment\, entrepreneurial thinkers\, Susan was destined to do something that pertained to the arts and living” outside the box”. \nBeing the youngest of Five Susan was highly influenced by her older artistic and musical brothers particularly her brother Gary.\nGary was an Illustrator /graphic designer\, a graduate of College of the Associated Arts in St Paul MN. As a young child\, Susan spent evenings sitting with him in his studio watching him work and drawing and painting with him. In 1969 Gary was tragically killed in a car accident\, leaving her family to struggle to put itself back together. \nSusan stopped painting and drawing for many years but redirected her creativity by taking piano lessons \, singing in choir and later learning to play the guitar. In time her family moved forward and what began as a love of searching for agates and fossils as a past time became a successful Lapidary business with her father’s encouragement and persistence. Family vacations were rock hunting/prospecting trips throughout the US and Mexico. Susan and her brothers all learned to be lapidarists and later the art of silversmithing\, jewelry design and repair. They worked out of the family shop their father had built at their home until their father’s death in 1991. Two of her brothers then took over the family business. \nAt age 26 Susan returned to her love of drawing and painting and began formal training at The College of Associated Arts. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts/Illustration in 1992. All throughout college \,Susan continued as a silversmith and jewelry designer as a means to make a living and pay for college. \nOver the last 23 years Susan has been busy with raising a family\, operating a Peruvian Paso horse business and art had been placed on and off the “back burner” of her life. Now with her children grown she is continuing on her journey\, following her desire to create. Believing that you never stop learning\, Susan continues working on improving her painting skills \, seeking education through mentorship and workshops whenever she can and increase her body of work. She is now working primarily in oils and has begun learning the art of Plein Air painting.
