Pears and Confetti Oil on Canvas Painting

Donated by Denise Susalka of Paintings by Denise

Since the year 2000 Denise Susalka has been channeling her creativity into her painting with the same passion and energy she brought to her fine art studies, her successful career in international finance, and raising her family. Her extensive travels in France, Italy, Japan and Puerto Rico are the basis for her rich landscapes and fanciful still life subjects. Denise seeks to engage your senses through her use of color, texture, and play of light in her art. Through her paintings, she aims to evoke the taste of the fruit, the aroma of flowers, the sound of trees swaying, the warmth of the sun and the coolness of the breeze. Her work has been shown and sold throughout Connecticut as well as in Puerto Rico and Texas. Pears and Confetti Oil on Canvas 16x20
