Help welcome artist Susan Hall in her new Point Reyes Station studio for Thanksgiving weekend Open Studios. Designed by local artchitect Jon Fernandez, with window's built out of freshly milled cypress by husband Steve, Hall's new studio is a beautiful open aired space which captures tons of natural light and the spirit of Point Reyes Station. The studio is placed in a field behind Point Reyes Prespyterian Church off of Route 1, and it will showcase recent paintings and ceramics by Hall.

Hall's painting reflects the magical and metaphorical potential of West Marin. Images of the rich, dreamy, and sometimes eerie setting of West Marin are common themes of Hall's work. The scene may include a passing sailboat, a lone fisherman, or small barn off on the horizon.

Hall says, "I see in landscape painting the reflection of the ever-changing canopy of the universe as well as the intimate recesses of the human psyche and soul." Hall also makes ceramics that reflect the rich warmth and generosity of spirit of northern California.

Ms. Hall has exhibited her work widely in museums and galleries including the Whitney Museum of Art; San Francisco Museum of Art; Nancy Hoffman Gallery, The Oakland Museum, Baltimore Museum, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Hudson River Museum, the Brooklyn Museum and the Kunst museum Lucerne, Switzerland.

Ms. Hall has received fellowships from the Adolph and Esther Gottleib Foundation, two National Endowment for the Arts awards, and grants from the Pollack Krasner Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts.

Hall holds a BFA degree from the CCA and a MA degree from the University of CA, Berkeley. She has been on the faculty of the School of Visual Arts, New York City, the San Francisco Art Institute, University of Texas at San Antonio and Austin, University of CO at Boulder, Sarah Lawrence College, Bronxville, and Cooper Union in New York City.
