Susan Daily has always been passionate about drawing.
Born in Melbourne Australia, she began drawing, praying, and illustrating the gospel stories in school, dreaming that one day she would illustrate a Bible. This was the beginning of her interest in religious symbolism which she still studies and it influences her work.
Susan’s vibrant artistic vision can be seen in her silk paintings and graphic design on her Featured Artist page on this website. She shares her skills with teachers and parishes in workshops and through the publications of her graphics in the WordPress.com blog- Reclaim the freshness of the GospelFor years Susan has volunteered as an art mentor, empowering Aboriginal women through the sacredness of art. Recently she has been working with Loreto Sisters in Timor Leste.
