Susan Taylor Brown is a fiber artist who creates highly textural art to be experienced not just with the eyes, but with the hands. Nestled in the Santa Cruz mountains of California, she draws deep inspiration from the natural world, translating the untamed beauty of her surroundings into her signature Wildscapes—miniature, tactile landscapes that make you want to shrink down and walk barefoot across the fields and hills.
Susan’s work is all about texture. She begins each Wildscape with hundreds of French knots, using hand-dyed wool yarn and other fibers to create pieces you can’t help but want to touch. For her, it's not just about how the art looks but how it feels. Each piece offers a moment of calm, inviting people to pause and reconnect with nature in a way that feels grounding and peaceful, reflecting Susan's belief in the healing power of the natural world.
As a self-taught artist, Susan is driven by intuition, experimentation, and play, letting each piece evolve naturally, much like the landscapes she seeks to honor. She hopes to inspire others to embrace their creativity and find peace in the interconnectedness of nature. For Susan, creativity is all about following your instincts and finding joy in the process.
