I find although my work is very vibrant in colors, I keep being drawn to artists who use black and white in their images. Somehow I seem to associate colorless images with a distortion of reality. I wonder then, if my use of color in my images is hindering my attempt to distort reality, or if it is helping it by staying in color. I feel I am pushing the light enough to make the images unrealistic, but I wonder if the colors are too close to those in reality.
Biography:
Suarez was born in South African and recvieved her BFA in printmaking there. She later got her MFA in Spain. "Suarez was educated and has exhibited widely in Spain (where she received a number of prestigious awards) and since 2004, in New York, Berlin. Johannesburg, Edinburgh, Barcelona, Brooklyn and Strasbourg." - Ghostprint Gallery
Quotes:
"...her origins are quite apparent in the exquisitely detailed portraits of people and animals she creates. " - Ghostprint Gallery
" Her work combines graphite with African and coffee-based pigments, producing an elegant amalgamation of delicacy and strength."- Ghostprint Gallery
Since she is not an american artist I found it impossible to find a website, interview, or review of her work.
