ABOUT THE ARTIST
Suzanne Zimmerman is a studio artist and educator. She earned her Masters of Fine Art in Interdisciplinary Arts & Media from Columbia College Chicago and is a National Board Certified Teacher. She finds much of her inspiration as a high school art instructor, from her three little girls, silly dog, and husband. The art objects and images she creates embrace the moment, exploring the joy and hope in youth through text, form, and whimsical imagery.
