Susan Dauphinee Painter of the Essence of FloridaCedar Key, Florida landscape artist, Susan Dauphinée, is known for her impressionistic approach to painting Florida’s intercoastal waterway, rivers, lakes and marshes. A runner, Dauphinée often captures on canvas the beauty she passes. She feels fortunate to live surrounded by her subject, with her studio and stilt house overlooking the sunset view of the marsh. Dauphinée’s typical process involves priming and scrubbing high quality acid-free mat board and then infusing the surface with washes of warm and cool hues appropriate to the paintings composition. From here, she builds up the surface with layers of opaque acrylic and further washes. Dauphinée is particularly concerned with the interplay of positive and negative shapes and forms; it is these elements that define and shape her images. Atmospheric value contrast is often the primary motive for painting a particular landscape. Her art is characterized by enthusiastic brushwork and impressionistic interpretations. She captures the essence of Florida’s lakes, rivers and wetlands. CONTACT US TOLL FREE AT 877.388.1112 FOR NEW & MORE WORKS BY THIS ARTIST ~ especially her NEWEST exquisite original acrylics !
