""Some of my work is what I call 'good paintings of bad drawings', validating the absurdity of life through scenes that are both sincere and humorous.""
""I come from farmers and approach painting in a farmer-ly manner, rising every morning to do the studio chores and to put in long hours tending my canvases.""
Sara Suppan, an oil painter, blends humor and sincerity in her evocative works that capture everyday absurdities. Her scenes, like wristwatches drawn on skin and Cheeto-dusted fingertips, are both whimsical and relatable. Suppan approaches her art with a blue-collar work ethic, paying homage to labor and skill through her detailed and technically adept paintings. She views her art as a playful commentary on the nature of work and societal expectations, using elements like origami butterflies made of cash to challenge conventional attitudes.
