Susan
Brabeau
What strikes the viewer first about a Susan
Brabeau canvass is her uncanny talent for capturing people. People - -
their moods, their idiosyncrasies, their body language. The artist enables
us to eavesdrop on a series of private moments that have an immediacy even
beyond photography or film.
The artist sees herself as a storyteller.
"..tales that tug at the heart, fire the imagination and delight the
senses," as she puts it. And throughout her work we find a love for
earlier, simpler Victorian times.
In Los Angeles she is best known for her
"tromp l'oeil" mural outside Miceli's Restaurant in Universal
City. Aside from being a favorite of residents, this mural has had almost
as much a career as the artist herself. It has been the backdrop for news
camera crews numerous times; it was featured in the book Wall Art;
Twentieth Century Fox used it for their image campaign; Eye On LA did a
feature story on it; and it was used as a backdrop in a feature file
"Hot Moves". Brabeau has done scenic design work for Orion, NBC,
Disney, and for her work in the theatre earned a Drama-Logue award.
