2025-04-21T15:32:52-04:00Articles, Exhibition|

Susan Hensel – Upcoming show – Viewpoints 2025, Montclair NJ At long last, Susan Hensel is showing in exhibitions once again! Susan has a few shows coming up this spring and into summer, the first of which opens on Friday, Viewpoints 2025. It is an annual juried group show put together by New Jersey-based gallery, Montclair Studios, that she participated in last year as well. Viewpoints 2025 marks the gallery’s 28th year of putting on the juried exhibition and features over 60 artists from across the country. This year, Susan submitted a piece from her Neotectonic Period series, Atmospheric Event 3. There are four atmospheric event pieces in the Neotectonic series which symbolize a pulling apart of the atmosphere. The work deals metaphorically with the effects of climate change, globally and universally.  […]

Running a growing art studio | Susan Hensel Projects | Textile Art

2021-11-14T18:27:06-05:00Articles|

Running a growing art studio is running a business…sort-of. So, once again, I am musing about things.  My workflow has recently become a bit more than I can sustain. Good things are coming my way a bit more frequently.  Even good things take time to accomplish. Fulfilling deadlines and data needs are eating into creative time with materials.  Has there been an uptick in income to match this activity?  a tiny bit….but mostly the demands on my time have increased. So, once again I had to look at my actual personal financial budget and determine how much I could carve out for a studio assistant and what I needed them to do. […]

Twists and Turns | New Work | Susan Hensel Projects

2021-10-27T14:52:46-04:00News, Articles, Embroidery Art|

Life is always full of Twists and Turns. So is my new artwork. More years ago than I care to count, I lost my husband to a freak accident, leaving me with a two year old. Sad? yes. But there is always learning to be had. The day after his father’s death, I told my son that his Daddy would not be coming home. His 2 year old response,”OK. Let’s play zoo.” So many unforeseen bridges were left to cross ahead, but the imperative, as demonstrated by a two year old, was “going forwardness,” to continue to grow, learn and live. Those imperatives do not disappear.Creativity is our birthright. It has survival value. We need it to grow-up and into our lives, no matter what they may be. […]

New Work | Pebble Beaches and Urban Living | Susan Hensel Projects

2025-04-14T15:51:09-04:00Exhibition, Articles, News|

Where does new work come from? Somewhere between Pebble beaches and Urban Living. read about the development of New Work at Susan Hensel Projects Not too long ago, I got back from vacation on the shores of Lake Superior.  To me, it is the greatest of all the Great Lakes.  It is cold, deep and wild!  Rarely swimmable and always dangerous to inexperienced fishermen and boaters.  I go there every year to decompress, hear myself think and “wash off the city.” […]

Seek and Ye Shall Find | Susan Hensel Projects

2021-07-09T14:04:56-04:00Exhibition, Articles, News|

Seek and Ye Shall Find | Susan Hensel Projects Art is still out in the world as well as online I look all the time. I look deeply at other people’s art every day. Seeking opportunities every day. Finding opportunities every day. I get opportunities sometimes! I’ve had kind of good run-on opportunities lately.  Taking chances has paid off.  This does not mean that I have avoided rejections, even dearly desired opportunities have rejected me lately.  It’s simply part of the process.  But sometimes you really do get lucky by taking a chance.
