Susan Duplan is a graduate of Visual Arts at the University of Western Ontario. Her art art has always been influenced by being near coastlines and her fascination with the interface of land and sea. Currently living on Pender Island off the coast of British Columbia and spending hours by and on the sea has spawned the “beginning” of her latest series called “The Energy Series”. The Energy Series is influenced by energies unseen and seen in and around the vast ocean.

Before moving to British Columbia, her years of living by the Bruce Peninsula shoreline and painting and experiencing the sometimes severe weather patterns on Lake Huron and Georgian Bay have laid groundwork for her latest series.
