Susan Swartz is based in Park City, Utah where she creates abstract paintings that explore the intersection of nature and spirituality.

Swartz creates with the impassioned intention of inspiring viewers to revere and protect the environment.
Born on the East Coast, Swartz attended Edinboro State College where she studied art as a first-generation college student. She has exhibited extensively across Europe and Asia and was honored as the Olympic Environmental Artist during the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
