ABOUT

Susie Lee is a Chinese-Canadian self-taught artist based in Toronto, Ontario. Using paint and clay, she captures the beauty of Canada’s changing seasons. Drawing inspiration from cherished childhood moments spent outdoors with her grandparents, Susie creates pieces that blend darkness with tranquility. Her work reflects her personal journey of navigating the cultural gap between her Asian heritage and Canadian identity, exploring themes of family, generational connections, and gratitude. Through her art, Susie delves into quiet moments of togetherness and the emotional landscapes we navigate in our relationships with loved ones and ourselves.

As a mother of two girls, Susie finds joy and inspiration spending time outdoors with her family. With a Masters in Accounting and as a CPA, she balances intuition with a methodical approach to creativity.
