Susanne Scherette King and Cagney King

Susanne is an abstract expressionist painter. Her non-objective art combines the flow and movement of paint creating strong textures, colors, and energy. Her entry into the world of painting came out of a long experience with garden design. Applying many of the same elements of this design, she puts brush to a canvas rather than shovel to the earth. She tries to achieve an organic feel to her paintings with a strong emphasis on abstract shapes, brush strokes, tones, and textures to create expressionistic visual poetry. Susanne has been strongly influenced by mid- century painters Robert Motherwell, Joan Mitchell, and Hans Hoffman

Cagney King was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia.
King’s southern roots mix bravely with an urban undertone to create her abstract portraiture. Her work exaggerates emotion to push forth layer upon layer of texture.
