"Majestic"

As an artist with disabilities, Suzanne Duhamel of Nashua has come out a winner by overcoming many hurdles to create bold surrealistic art. Suzanne is driven by the inner desire to express and find emotional and inner healing through her art work. Telegraph Staff Writer, Dean Shalhoup says... "Put a regular, everyday Papermate fine-point in the hands of Nashua artist Suzanne Duhamel, and suddenly they're magical conveyors of astoundingly complicated, sometimes dark, insight just waiting to burst free from deep within Duhamel's they're magical conveyors of astoundingly complicated, sometimes dark, insight just waiting to burst free from deep within Duhamel's heart and soul. "What a beautiful description of her extraordinary work" says Janis Cosby, at Gallery One, who notes that people are also finding Suzanne's art work to be highly collectible. Surrealism seeks to express the subconscious mind by depicting objects and events as seen in dreams. As expressed by Suzanne, "I have been drawing and painting all of my life and without my art I would be lost, due to chronic pain due to an accident... My art helps keep me going, keeps my mind alert and delivers a great coping mechanism!" Another aspect of Suzanne's unique vision is that the sun motif needs always to be present in her art work, as it symbolizes the joy it brings into her life. Suzanne's work is on display at Gallery One through November 9, 2008 and is a worthy adventure into the Arts.
