Since graduation, I have continued to work on my paintings. I am in the process of adding these paintings to Imagekind. In the meantime, additional paintings can be seen at http://www.susansavad.com.

In addition to working on my fine art, I also make flower designs which can be bought on t-shirts and other gifts. The website for my flower designs is http://www.designsbysusan.com.
