Lives and Works in Germany  
 

 

Edith born in Eupatoria, Latvia is a high creative artist, her name is well known in many towns and countries. After the middle school of Latvian Academy of Arts in Riga (1971), Edith Suchodrew graduated the Latvian Academy of Arts as Graphic Artist (1981). In the course of time and her artistic activities, she always developed in many directions of art.  As a graduated graphic artist, Edith has created high-appreciated etchings, lithographs, drawings, which with their profound contents reflect the intern position and intelligence of the artist. Each large graphic sheet is an event. With deep interest were created by the artist 140 bookplates for many different famous persons. More than 50 bookplates were shown in a solo exhibition in Aachen 1992-1993, where she lives since 1991. As a graphic artist, she has much created for book art: book - design with illustrations (more than 40 books), drawings for newspapers and magazines. Watercolors, drawings, woodcut in big forms are also artistic activities from Edith, as well, as oil painting, silk painting, painting on porcelain, computer graphic and animation. With oil painting continues a colored period, which takes a new way with computer graphic, animation and watercolors after the “black & white“ phase. Large size oil pictures with several, often with tragically themes, make the creative activities richer. Portraits and figurative painting take an important place in her art. Watercolors united in series and variable themes, how: for example landscape novels, symphony of the woods, arcs of Byzantine, circles of life, fantastic and real. Edith in-depth interest for different cultures created a large size watercolors cycle of watercolors, “On the traces for ancient cultures”. Edith works are in museums ownership and private collections worldwide.
