The Harpsichord Project
The harpsichord project began in 1976 when Susie was playing viola in a Renaissance quartet and she felt that it needed an instrument to produce a more authentic sound. So she decided to build a harpsichord! It was completed in April 2026, with an all-day gathering in her workshop before she donated it to Calgary harpsichordist Justin Luchinski.
The Bird House Project
This bird house was one of many that was auctioned in December 2018 at the Hillhurst Sunnyside Community Centre. The money raised from the sale of the bird houses went to the renovation of the Art Room at the community centre.
"Framed on Fifth“, a small Gallery across the street from the centre helped distribute the unpainted bird houses.
Birds and Habitats
Bird carvings paired with paintings of their habitats.
For a possible future show at Framed on Fifth.
Northern Lights
As a resident of Alberta, where the Northern Lights are readily visible at certain times of the year, Susie has been inspired to create a series of Northern Light paintings.
