Susanne Nyberg

Powerful mountain vistas, fiery-brilliant sunsets, the magical transformation as the late afternoon



sunlight splashes and bathes the landscape with glowing color: These are the elements which inspire



Susanne to create paintings. She and her husband, Bob, are fortunate to live in the small and aptly



named community of Carefree, Arizona. This little town is nestled in the foothills of the upper



Sonoran Desert, revered by many as the most diverse and lush desert in the world. It is this strikingly



beautiful environment which provides her with the dramatic and vividly-hued scenes which her



work embraces with such artistry.



She was born and raised in Framingham, Massachusetts. She studied at both the Art Institute of



Boston and the Museum of Fine Arts School. She also studied at the Corcoran Museum School in



Washington, D.C. She is the daughter of a professional artist and was encouraged to paint prolifically



since childhood. However, Susanne’s most significant influence has come from her long-time friend



and mentor, renowned wildlife and landscape artist, Bill Freeman. After having worked in many



different media and styles, such as pottery, sculpture, portraiture, wild life art, and various types of



abstract art, Susanne chose landscape painting as her favorite form of expression.
