Sudie Rakusin
I am a visual artist, sculptor, author, illustrator and publisher. I was born and raised in Washington, DC, and I currently reside in Hillsborough, NC. I received my BFA in painting from Boston University and my MFA in Painting from the University of Arizona.
Being an animal activist and feminist, my artwork flows from what moves me and from where I find beauty: women, animals, the earth, color, pattern and light. My art represents the deep connection I feel with these elements. Through my artwork I create a world as I would like it to be, where harmony exists between animal and human, and where nature thrives. My work includes pen and ink drawings, papier-mâché sculptures and vessels, collage, abstract and figurative paintings in cold wax and oil, and 3-dimensional oil on canvas paintings featuring women and animals. “Art is where I go for refuge, replenishing, and how I pay homage to what sustains me.”
