In 2015 I studied watercolor with Susan Abbott in both the Bahamas and Vermont. She became a mentor and friend. Two of her oils and two of her watercolors hang in my home. She's an accomplished painter in watercolor and oil. This, below, is one of her recent paintings spotted online that I see as spectacular. It works on so many levels exhibiting her fabulous technique.

Susan Abbott's visual tour through the vineyards, markets, villages, and lavender fields of Southern France, painted plein air in the Luberon Mountain region near Gordes and Roussillon. With 140 oil and watercolor paintings, as well as her insightful essays about this unique place, she takes you to her vision of the Provence she's traveled to for the past twenty years.
Ten chapters encapsulate her vision of Southern France: On the Table, Market Day, In the Village, Lavender, Stones and Walls, Trees and Quarries, Fields and Farms, Skies, Vineyards and Orchards, and Vistas. Each chapter opens with a brief informative essay by her.
