ABOUT THE ARTIST
Susanna Sutus
Artist • Children's Book Author & Illustrator • Artisan Creator

I was born and raised in Budapest, Hungary, where my love ofC

art began at an early age. Ever since I was a child, I was fascinated by drawing, painting, and the beauty found in nature and storybooks. In 1998, I moved to Canada with my husband and our two children. Like many new beginnings, the first years brought challenges, but they also helped me discover the path I had been searching for all my life.

A simple gift of a canvas and easel became the turning point that inspired me to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. I studied Fine Arts and later continued my education at George Brown College in Toronto, where I explored life drawing, illustration, and cartooning. My artistic journey eventually led me to specialize in children's book illustration, where I found my greatest passion—bringing stories to life through hand-drawn illustrations.

Over the years, I have worked as a painter, mural artist, portrait artist, and illustrator, participating in art exhibitions and collaborating with talented artists who encouraged and inspired my creative growth. I believe that drawing is the foundation of all visual art, and every piece I create begins with careful observation, imagination, and a love of storytelling.

Today, my work has grown beyond traditional artwork into the DrawingWings collection, where art and craftsmanship come together. Alongside original paintings, hand-drawn portraits, children's book illustrations, and digital wall art, I also create the Fairy Tale Garden Collection—a line of handcrafted soaps inspired by flowers, birds, butterflies, and the enchanting beauty of nature. Many of these collections are complemented by matching framed artwork and handcrafted beaded bracelets, allowing each design to become part of a complete story.

Whether I am illustrating a children's book, creating a portrait, designing a new soap collection, or handcrafting a piece of jewelry, my goal remains the same: to create meaningful, beautiful pieces that bring warmth, joy, and a little everyday magic into people's lives.

Thank you for visiting DrawingWings. I hope my creations inspire you as much as creating them inspires me.

ARTIST STATEMENT

“I believe that painting my dreams is healing my soul and more than that, it is healing for people. Every idea has been created to reflect a moment and in that moment you feel nature, sound, colour, with the combination of all your senses. It gives a feeling of hope, love, compassion and goodness. If I can give something back to this world through my art work, than I have accomplished something good and I’m grateful for it.”
