Give to every Human Being every Right that you claim for Yourself
- Thomas Paine -


Painters for Human Rights is a platform for painters to use their creativity to promote Human Rights. Painters of all mediums, nationality, creed or religion are welcome to express themselves! We live in turbulent times. As artists we have a purpose in this society. In fact we embody such rights as the "Freedom of Thought (18)" and the "Freedom of Speech" (19). We artists are peaceful people, we do not fight wars, but if we do "fight" it is in form of ideas and concepts which we express through our Works of Art. EXPRESS YOURSELF!

When it Snows in Scarborough...

This painting was inspired by a unique love story and a photograph from a friend who grew up in Scarborough.

I am pleased to announce that this year I will be releasing a series of customized art cards. This first was created for upcoming Valentine's Day. It's title is "Will you be my Valentine". It was created from an original acrylic painting on wood 48" x 32". So in addition to my regular cards, be sure to visit my gallery named "Greeting Cards" frequently if you are looking for unique art cards fitting for many occasions. -- Susi Galloway

Just completed this new painting:

One might call this hauntingly beautiful...but I let you be the judge... I've titled it ENIGMA Or as one viewer beautifully put it: "It signifies life and death working together.....one can not exist without the other.....both admiring each other in mutual respect" . It is available as prints, posters and cards in various sizes.

Poet Francis Don Daniels was inspired by my recent painting Siren's Lure and wrote an amazing Ekphrasis.
An Ekphrasis or ecphrasis is the graphic, often dramatic description of a visual work of art.


SIREN'S LURE

Pictures winged

in three dimensions

before my eyes,

dartling

one and then the next

a panorama of existence

soaked

with emotions

I could not explain....
