Suzanne S. Balanay - Visual Artist
Suzanne endeavours to capture the beauty and challenges of life through art.
She has always been fascinated by the subtleties of facial movement, the expression of body language and the mystery of the mind. Her portraiture endeavours to convey the human psyche. She aspires to capture the beauty and challenges of life in a series she is currently developing. In addition to the series, she paints and draws various subjects that piques her interest.
When she was four or five years old, she was shown how to draw a face and that moment had sparked Suzanne’s passion for art. When she was a bit older, she begged her parents for art classes which she started in 4th grade all the way until she graduated high school. She then obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts from University of San Carlos, Cebu City, Philippines.
She later moved to Australia after marrying her high school sweetheart. Suzanne is based in Brisbane, Australia, and also offers art classes from her home studio.
