Susannah Kelly is a third generation artist raised in
New York City. She graduated with a Bachelor or Fine
Arts from Cooper Union School of Art followed by a
career and a freelance illustrator for several
advertising and publishing companies.
Since 1999 Susannah has worked as an art instructor
for the Short Center South in Sacramento, CA, a non-
profit program for developmentally disabled adults.
Working with this population has changed the way
she views art. “These individuals have no idea what is
appropriate or conventional in art. It makes their
work refreshing and has inspired me to be more
courageous in my choice of themes and colors”.
The purpose of Susannah’s art and life is create
beauty in response to all that is ordinary, ugly, and
troubling in our world. Contrary to popular opinion,
we can live in a beautiful world. Her practice of
Nichiren Buddhism supports these ideals.
