Susan James Dean exhibits her work at b Gallery artdirectory ~ which now can be seen around the world!

My interests involve art as a means of communication: I think the creation of something visual is an effort to make sense of the world and our experiences within it. Drawing is a primary form of expression, and although my drawings of the figure often show an intuitive and spontaneous response, they are underpinned by many years of drawing from observation.
