Susan Varo is a self-taught Visual Artist whose career began at the age of eight.  Her talents were quickly noticed by her teachers and peers.  By the age of nine, she won a scholarship to Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.

She pursued her passion and continued creating many beautiful works, which she has sold to many.

With her strong artistic background she produces amazing original-oil paintings on stretched canvas in the style of realism.  Her images are intricate and unique.  Close attention is paid to detail seen on each and every piece.

Many pieces of her artwork were donated and given as gifts.  This includes the New York Hospital of Queens as part of a community garden and a gift to actress and choreographer Debbie Allen.

Her artwork has been exhibited at The Langston Hughes Community Library and Cultural Center in East Elmhurst, NY, The Queens Museum of Art, Flushing, NY and The United Nations in New York City for International Women’s Day amongst many others.

Susan also has a partnership with Check Advantage as part of the Licensed Artist Series, where her works are reproduced onto checks, checkbook covers and mailing labels.

She resides in Corona, NY and creates her artwork in her home art studio.
