Review : Sushe Felix
Sushe Felix is a talented landscape artist in Colorado. Her fractured landscapes resemble stained glass or cubist works like Braque. Animals play and flowers bloom in her playful scenes. The images glow with light. The sun’s rays or moon’s glow flood the shattered planes that compose the environments. The broken layers unfold and undulate, giving the images movement.
The paintings have been a staple of southwest and mountain landscape imagery for years. Along with partner Tracy Felix, who's landscapes have a more fluid and sculptural style, Sushe has kept regionalist landscape art alive. Her works tell stories of the land much as Thomas Hart Benton or Diego Rivera had. And they celebrate the sublimity of nature much like a Frederick Church or Thomas Cole. They depict a deep love and respect for the earth. They have a spiritual quality; paying tribute to nature.
Sushe knows the land well. It shows in her work. I encourage you to collect this artist’s paintings. Visit her website and look for more here at SharksEatMeat.
