Suzanne LeBeau started as a muralist. She has been an elementary school teacher for most of her adult life, but has felt a calling to get back to her creative side. She took up faux finishing about 15 years ago and specializes in metallic finishes, plasters, and murals. She has taken those skills and applied them to the canvas. She does realistic plein air oils and large acrylic abstracts. Suzanne has taken classes and workshops with local and internationally known teachers: Cholley Whisson, Barbara Jaenicke, Patti Brady, Tom Jones, Sterling Edwards and Johannes Vloothuis, as well as local teachers Carol Berning, Kim Barrick, Gayle Levee, Dawn Whitlaw, Kevin Menck, Jim Himsworth, and Missy Veazie. She is a member of the Rutherford Arts Alliance, Chestnut Group, the Smyrna Artist’s Cooperative, Nashville Creative Group, and the Murfreesboro Art League, where she teaches adult and children’s art classes. She has been the featured artist at the Murfreesboro Art League, as well as the Linebaugh and Smyrna Public libraries. She has had her work shown at the Parthenon in Centennial Park in Nashville, The Jewish Community Center, Radnor Lake State Park, Shelby Bottoms Nature Center, Franklin Parks, and The Bridge Building in Nashville. She does portrait commissions, as well as pet and home “portraits.” She also teaches art students with Carpe Artista Academy in Smyrna.
