Suzanne Jewell is a Maui Inspired Artist. Born 1954 in Tripoli, Libya, to Air Force parents and lived in Athens, Greece, for several years. She grew up on the East Coast, starting in New York, and loved the saturation of seasonal colors and landscapes from the Atlantic Ocean to the Blue RidgeMountains. Her family visited all the National Parks before beingtransferred to the Philippine Islands. Her home is now on Maui in Kula, Hawaii, on the side of Haleakala Volcano. She and her husband have goats, chickens, and two cats.  As a self-taught artist since 2019, Suzanne's work in acrylic painting embodies creativity in the truest sense of the word as she explores many styles and techniques while taking classes with local artists and online courses. She enjoys the lush colors and rays of sunlight on Hawaiian island oceans, lands, beaches, flowers, birds, rainbows, fish, and sunsets. “I love the colors”, she says.  Suzanne is inspired to create art for mindfulness and calming meditative consciousness that increases greater awareness with each painting. Her artwork has been displayed and sold at The Hui No'eau Visual Arts Center in Makawao, HI, Hana Coast Gallery in Hana, HI, and Banyan Fine Art Tree Gallery in Lahaina, HI.
