About the artist:

Susan Ullman was born in Tennessee, but resided in New York City most of her life. She traveled extensively and developed an appreciation of other ethnic groups and their art as it relates to their culture. Ullman received an M.F.A. from Columbia University. She also studied at the art students’ league where she became inspired by several well-known artists. Among them were Matisse, Chagall, and Klee. From an early age, the artist recalled having a love of handmade paper and collage effect. Ullman also derived her inspiration from a deep desire to retain a sense of magic and fantasy within her life. (from SusanUllman.com)
