Anna Bucciarelli
Here's a bit about Susanne.
"Painting, for me, is about shape and pattern and color. Reality is where I start, but more often it becomes a jumping off point to somewhere else – to a paring down of form, a heightening of color, an unexpected color combination.
I like working within a theme, and often create multiple versions of the same subject. My favorite medium is pastel, which I love for its luscious color and its duality as painting and drawing medium.
I’m a member (since 2001) and past president of the Lakeshore Artists, and a currently teaching pastel through Stewart Hall in Pointe Claire."

Angelo David Russo
Montreal artist Angelo David Russo aims to develop an approach to modern portraiture and storytelling that goes beyond traditional ideas of the portrait by creating textured and sculptural mixed media paintings with surrealist, cubist and street art influences.
In 2012, Russo developed his signature style by using collage and tape-resist techniques which reflect the artist’s process of self-discovery and identity. During the Pandemic, Russo mastered acrylic pouring which he currently integrates in most of his work, while exploring new ways of combining fluid art and other mixed media techniques.
