Suarez, Marta

Marta, also known as “Mimi” was born in Havana, Cuba and was exiled to the USA after the communist revolution. Since her early years, Mimi always had a passion for painting.

After graduating from an Interior Decorating and Design School in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Mimi put her career on hold to become a full-time “Mom” of three. Mimi decided to
return to her love and passion of painting when her youngest child left to college. Ever since, she has taken workshops from Marc Chatov, Albert Handell, Sherrie McGraw, John de la Vega, Anita Louise West, Robert Johnson and Bill Davidson. The artist has also studied under Nancy Honea, Deborah Ankrom Kepes, Carol Baxter Kirby, Tom Williams, Jim Schell, Teena Stern, Debra Nadelhoffer and Kristopher Meadows.

Her work is held in private collections throughout the United States and Europe.
