There may be times when artist Suzanne Laura Kammin wants to deny that she is married to me (like when I’m being critical of other artists on this blog), but I have the marriage license to prove otherwise, so I feel pretty secure for now.
It would be difficult to be married to an artist whose work I didn’t like, so I’m grateful that I respond so strongly to her paintings – work that feels very open, expansive and beautiful. For all their bright color and sense of play, they are quite rigorous and deep in a way that is all too rare.
So I hope that you will join Suzanne at the opening of her show, Greater and Lesser Vehicles at the Painting Center in Chelsea this Thursday 6 – 8 PM. Suzanne is sharing the main space with Marianne Gagnier, her show titled Of This World. Ro Lohn’s Snow Paintings are in the project space. Lots to see, lots to love.
Congratulations, Suzanne!

Don’t feel the need to see the marriage license, but maybe a birth certificate to confirm citizenship might be helpful. (JK) Seriously, I wish her the very best, as I too am very appreciative of her painting.
Thanks so much, Steve – so sweet of you. Best of luck with your show in Dumbo and at school. Reciprocally, I am appreciative of your work and so glad to know you.
