Sue Dolamore, an Asheville-based fine art painter, began her creative journey in 2014 after her youngest daughter's graduation. She immersed herself in painting, fostering a thriving plein air community that grew from a dozen to nearly 400 members. Her leadership in exploring Asheville's landscapes fueled her rapid artistic growth, leading to the opening of her River Arts District studio in 2019. 

By 2021, Sue's artistic voice had crystallized into a distinctive style. Experimenting with abstract color studies, she seamlessly integrated representational imagery into her compositions, often starting with bold and spontaneous lines. Her signature touch involves the application of transparent watercolor, resulting in pieces reminiscent of cubism and stained glass.

Sue also enjoys teaching at the John C Campbell Folk School, Montreat Conference Center and other venues in Western North Carolina.
