Susan Paredes’ life long passion for making
visual images evolved from a degree in art
education to a fascination with photography, years
of watercolor study, and extensive training in
printmaking and mixed media. Paredes’ early
studies in design and color as well as her
background in watercolor provided inspiration and
impetus for incorporating inks, papers, pastels and
acrylics into later images. Her current work uses
strong graphic elements as a foundation for
original prints, incorporating texture, fabric and
other images into the finished piece. Her unique
pieces invite the viewer to create their own
interpretation of the work. As a contemporary
artist, Susan revels in the element of mystery and
the spontaneity of the process, which results in one-
of-a-kind impressionistic images.
Paredes has been the recipient of numerous
awards in watercolor, printmaking and mixed
media. Her work has been exhibited in Northwest
galleries, festivals and regional shows and is held
in private and corporate collections.
Susan’s Gig Harbor studio is a renovated barn
surrounded by open fields. To learn more about
her work and class offerings contact her at 253-
