Full Artist Bio

Susan Valentine Biography

Originally from the North Shore of Massachusetts, I came from Boston proper to my small, rural town in western Mass in the early ’90’s.
I began practicing graphic design when I started teaching yoga in 1994 in order to promote my classes. It was over ten years before I would study it formally. It was there that I got my initial training in composition.
I studied first graphic design, then painting at Greenfield Community College. I have an adult daughter, a supportive and artistic husband and a wonderful and large group of supportive friends and artists. I have held studio space at Leverett Crafts & Arts in Leverett, MA since 2013 and very much enjoy the support of a community of artists there.
