Originally from Tennessee, Susan Weeks has lived in New Mexico since 1980. She paints a wide variety of subjects, including exotic animals, Turkish ruins, and botanical images. In her watercolors, she often uses out-of-focus, abstract, negative spaces to balance more crisp, dominant, positive ones. Ms. Weeks is a signature member of the New Mexico Watercolor Society (NMWS). She is represented by Patrician Design, 216 Gold SW, in Albuquerque. Her paintings can also be seen at Charles Pianos, 2420-A Monroe NE, in Albuquerque.
