Bio

Susan Mayfield is an artist well known for her use of color and light in her pastel and oil landscapes. A native of Charleston, SC, she and her husband, Lee Hunnicutt, currently divide their time between the Lowcountry of South Carolina, and Salida, Colorado, finding inspiration in the natural beauty of both environments.

After graduating with honors in Fine Arts from the College of Charleston, in South Carolina, Mayfield continued her studies with many prominent contemporary artists. Her career has included solo and group exhibits in galleries such as the Wells Gallery, in Charleston, SC, the Joyce Robins Gallery in Santa Fe, NM, The Red Piano Gallery in Hilton Head, SC, the Gibbes Museum of Art, among many others. Her work is found in corporate and private collections, and her paintings have been exhibited internationally in the Art in the Embassies program. In addition to creating artwork, she teaches pastel and landscape painting workshops around the country, and ongoing classes in Salida and Charleston.

Susan Mayfield's paintings can be seen at the Palace Gallery at the Palace Hotel in Salida, Colorado, and at the Sandpiper Gallery on Sullivan's Island, SC.
