Susan Rodio ART's Interests
General
Art, painting/drawing and photography, reading and researching things of interest like Mythology, Spirituality, Psychic phenomena, getting down ideas for my art.
I also love anything that is different but not for the sake of being different something with credibility and a spark of genius and atmosphere. E.g a great film or piece of art or a fascinating individual.
I love reading books mostly non - fiction. Love reading about Astrology,Esoteric subjects, Spirituality, especially Symbolism, Psychic and Paranormal, Metaphysics etc.
Other things are enjoy are, reading a good book, writing, cooking, collecting resource material for my art, insence, essential oils, collecting crystals,going to my favourite Esoteric bookstores in Sydney. I also love going to the beach/ocean and watching the waves and getting out of the city and getting into nature.
Music
I love so many types of music but ones that come to mind are Jeff Buckley, Jewel,Fiona Apple, Alicia Keys,Phil Collins and Genesis, The Smiths,The Sundays, The Cowboy Junkies, Areo Speedwagon, Radiohead,U2,Pearl Jam,Carla Brunii,Chris Isaak,Fleetwood Mac,80's music

Movies
Most Jim Carey films,( I love to laugh and is much needed to counterbalance my tendency to worry) so yeah comedy films are amongst my favourites and I love anything with Ben Stiller.
Also like foreign films but try to stay away from anything too dark as it just increases my pessimism.
Television
I dont watch much TV but I have to admit there are some good occasional things to watch for example: Seinfeld,Little Britain,ALI G,Smallville, The Vicar of Dibley, The Osbournes, Jamie Oliver Cooking Shows, Gordon Ramsay's shows,Parkinson, SBS late night Foreign Films. I do love a good documentary, anything relating to Art, Music,Biographical stories, History,& Nature or creativity.
Books

People with presence, kind hearts and awake minds. People that challenge the status quo and care about a better world from the inside out.
and.......All the artists and people in history that have changed humanity for the better, people that paint and make art simply because they are passionate about it AND my beautiful partner!
My name is Susan, I am an Artist from Sydney Australia,(all my work is painted using traditional brush, acrylic paint and stretched canvas or canvas board.)
MY INFLUENCES:
I am attracted to all things mystical, spiritual and magical, I am influenced by Spirit, Symbolism, Female form and beauty, Archetypal Images, Tarot, Creativity in various forms, Life Mysteries, Looking beyond the surface of life, Nature, Oceans, Forests and The Earth in all its beauty and magic.
THE PAINTING PROCESS:..
Painting is a real passion for me, I have so many ideas at one time it is not always possible to get them all onto the canvas but I do have many sketch books where I record ideas, sketches and collect resource material.
When it comes to painting I tend to work at one piece at a time as I focus best that way.
My art making process involves completing many drawings before starting on a particular painting and then I choose the one that feels strongest in terms of a complete vision in colour and form that I can see fitting perfectly onto a canvas.
My preferred medium is Acrylic Paint on either stretched canvas or canvas board.
I also love seeing what other artists are producing, especially in the realm of fantasy/mythical/spiritual art.
I am always grateful to be able show my work and to connect with other Artists through the medium of the internet.
