My Story

From my earliest memories, animals have been my companions, my muses — a connection more profound than I’ve ever known with the human world. This sacred bond breathes life into each painting within my atelier, a quiet sanctuary where time fades, and the vanishing spirit of the wild is captured in symbolic, timeworn narratives.

Inspired by the revered masters of the Renaissance and Baroque, I paint each creature with mythic reverence — wings unfurling not only as emblems of hope, but as quiet elegies to fragility, extinction, and transcendence. These are not mere representations, but relics of emotion — born of a personal rite and conjured through months of meticulous layering. Each brushstroke is both devotion and mourning, a tribute to what remains... and what may be lost.

My artistry is deeply entwined with the ethereal language of ballet — a discipline I’ve embodied since the age of three — where beauty is fleeting and grace is born in silence. My paintings offer a sanctuary of their own: wild visions steeped in velvet shadows and lit by the soft glow of rose gold, a signature element that threads hope through the fading grandeur of the natural world.

To own a Susanne Elisabeth original is to hold a story — a legacy suspended between the mythical and the mortal, told in gilded hues and symbolic light. It is an invitation to witness the wild through my eyes: reverent, surreal, and soul-deep.

Welcome to my world, where beauty walks the edge of extinction, and every painting is a sacred farewell whispered in gold
