The October 2022 Sale of Original Works by Susan Seddon-Boulet

Susan Seddon-Boulet  is considered an important founding member of the American Visionary Art Movement.  Her magnificent works are widely held in collections around the world.  Four books have been written about her life and art, "Shaman: The Paintings of Susan Seddon-Boulet", "The Goddess Paintings",  "The Power of the Bear" and "Susan Seddon-Boulet:A Retrospective." Written by Michael Babcock and published by Pomegranate Art Books. 

Susan Seddon-Boulet's art continues to exert a profound influence on the lives that it touches.  Anais Nin wrote:

"These figures are out of our dreams, those which flee from us upon awakening, those which are dispersed like dew at dawn, those which fall apart between our fingers like dust-roses.

Susan has a more muted step, or perhaps she is invisible…more soft-voiced, soft-gestured, as the images do not escape from her.  She can return from her voyages with intact descriptions…from places never visited by us but which we remember."

We are again very pleased to include notations from Susan’s close friend and biographer Michael Babcock about the work offered. Michael’s numerous books about Susan and her art have served to document and give personal insight into Susan and her artistic legacy.  


Please Note: These are medium resolution images to facilitate quicker downloads. The original works are brighter, of finer detail and richness of color.  Individual monitor settings may alter the color of the original image.

All of these pieces are framed with Museum, conservation, Tru-Vue Glass; a premium glass which provides state-of-the-art UV protection, minimizes glare and at most angles appears virtually invisible. This glass is often used in major museums to protect the masterworks on display.
