About The Show

As part of our Women’s History Month programming, Cove Street Arts is proud to present a selection of Susan Webster’s gorgeous, feminist ink on paper drawings from her ongoing Intuitions series, in addition to an event promoting her Roewear Project.

Wait, What?! is a series of small, detailed drawings that grew out of working with unconscious imagery while visiting Japan in 2015. After Donald Trump’s infamous comment directed at Hillary Clinton during a 2016 presidential debate, I began including fragments of letters from “Nasty Woman” in the drawings. I continue to draw in this intuitive method in response to challenges that face us today.

Susan’s Intuitions drawings will be priced at $400 framed and $350 unframed for the duration of the exhibition. Afterwards, they will return to their normal price points of $450/$400.

I was born in Boothbay Harbor Maine and am the daughter of florists. Early memories are playing hide and seek in our maze of greenhouses where rows of pots were poised to root, sprout, or bloom and where the air was moist, lush, and fecund. I liked making things from the materials and supplies in our floral shop: frilly lacy ribbons, shiny foil, rolls of brown packing paper, carbon slips, cardboard scraps, discarded flowers, glue, pens, thick pencils, floral foam, staplers, scotch tape, scissors, and a pencil sharpener that worked like a charm.
