Susan Vreeland: Though not an art historian, I'm more familiar with painting than other art forms, having had painters in my distant family and growing up surrounded by them, so I was naturally attracted thereto. Also, paintings have been more accessible to me through the wealth of art books published currently. Galileo wrote that painting, which is a two dimensional form, is a higher achievement in replicating life than sculpture which is already a three-dimensional form and therefore requires less of its maker. An interesting thesis, but it does not account for the emotional or spiritual context of a work, only its qualities of physical representation. By the sheer volume of paintings I've encountered, it's natural that I turned to them, though I've had reactions just as moving to some pieces of sculpture by Rodin, Bernini and Michelangelo.

Reading Group Guide Susan Vreeland I graduated from San Diego State University, and have lived in San Diego since I was twelve (oh, how lucky I amI am grateful every day), and in California since I was two. I have taught high school English in the San Diego Unified School System since 1969, and ceramics since 1986, retiring recently after a 30-year career. My student writing handbook, What English Teachers Want I didn't grow up longing to be a writer; in fact, the urge, strong as it is, is relatively recent. Concurrent with teaching, I began writing features for newspapers and magazines in 1980, taking up subjects in art, travel, education and skiing. I am married to a wonderful man, a software engineer who does my website. We live in San Diego, have no children, love to ski, take walks, visit museums, and travel, though we are too often embroiled in our work and are in a perenial struggle to make time for fun. I turned to fiction to write What Love Sees . Published in 1988, it is the true story of Jean Treadway's unwavering determination to lead a normal life despite blindness. To this end, she leaves her sheltered, wealthy New England home and marries Forrest Holly, also blind, a struggling rancher in a remote California mountain town.

Parnassus Book Reviews "The Forest Lover" by Susan Vreeland Book Review by Mary Guss April 12, 2007 Thursday Ketchikan, Alaska - Although it is fiction, "The Forest Lover" is based on the life of Emily Carr, an actual historical character. Carr is already known to many Southeast Alaskan's. Others will newly come to appreciate her through this novel. Emily Carr was born in Victoria, British Columbia in 1871. Before she turned twenty she left Canada to study art in San Francisco. From there her studies took her to London, from which she returned in 1906. Back in British Columbia in the wildest parts of that province she searched for inspiration and escaoe from everything that hemmed iher in. The first page of Ms. Vreeland's novel relates: She had been to San Francisco and found it cramped, to London and found it stifling. She had ridden the Canadian Pacific Railway across the Rockies, breathless at their jagged power, and had galloped bareback across a ranch in the Western Cariboo, swinging her hat and whooping to the broad sky. She'd gone home to the starched and doilied parlor of the yellow, two-story bird cage of a house in Victoria, British Columbia, ... and found only hyprocisy and criticism there. But very soon Carr travels to the West Coast of Vancouver Island and revels in the wildness there, "the whole place juicy with life." It is in such places over the next forty years of her life that the artist finds what inspiresher, and creates her own interpretation of what she sees. Throughout her years of painting and writing for she was also an author Carr traveled not only to remote Canadian sites, but also into Southeast Alaska, as far north as Skagway. The books is a revelation of the art and culture of all the places she visits many of which are long gone now as well as a gripping story of the development of Carr's character and her art.

Susan Vreeland's Thoughts on Writing Page 1 of 4 Award-winning author Susan Vreeland gives students advice on creative writing, from tools of the craft to revision strategies. Attitude Voice in Fiction Historical Fiction Vreeland's Revision Checklist Or Am I Really Finished? Attitude "Be humbly what you aspire to be," says Henry David Thoreau. "Man's noblest gift to man is his sincerity, for it embraces his integrity also." This helps me to dispel a sense of inadequacy in order to probe a topic freely, without preconceptions. Emily Carr, the Canadian painter and subject of my book, The Forest Lover , wrote this reminder to herself in her journal: "You yourself are nothing, only a channel for the pouring through of that which is something, which is all. Your job is to keep that channel clear and clean and pure so that which passes through may be unobstructed, unsullied, undiluted, and thus show forth its clear purity and intention." Similarly, the more I lose any willful egotism or a hurried frame of mind and give myself the gifts of solitude and time so that I may listen with an open, humble heart, the more likely I am to recognize good material, fresh ideas, felicitous phrasing, from what the universe is offering. Henry James advises writers to try to be a person upon whom nothing is lost. To me, that cultivation of receptivity is based on knowing that we don't create the thoughts that come to us. We select them. This is in line with what Ralph Waldo Emerson tells us: "All writing comes by the grace of God."

Five novels and an opera, all recently released, attest to an ongoing popular fascination withand mistaken view ofVermeer and his historic Dutch context. Reading in succession five recent novels that draw on the art world of 17th-century Holland (and seeing an opera set in the same milieu) is an all too revealing experience. Four of the books introduce a female protagonist into the studio of a male artist devoted to painting genre scenes, especially pictures of intriguing women. The women sit for the painters as models, and here is what happens to them:

March 2002's Author! Author! Susan Vreeland (Chosen by author, reviewer, interviewer, Nancy Mehl ) About Susan Interview Reviews Booklist Accolades for Susan By: Nancy Mehl, MyShelf.Com My first exposure to Susan Vreeland came in 1999. The book review site I worked for, The Charlotte Austin Review, was approached by Susan's publicist with a request for a review. Her book, Girl in Hyacinth Blue , sounded interesting, but perhaps a little "highbrow" for my tastes. However, I accepted the review. Along with the review came a note from my editor asking me to do an interview with Susan. I looked her up on the Internet, trying to get a little background information. What I found impressed me, but I wanted to read the book before getting into the interview. I sat down with Girl in Hyacinth Blue - and didn't get up for a long time. The book wasn't just absorbing - it was an experience. Each chapter traced the path of a painting - the painting of a young girl. Each person was touched by the artist's work in a different way because, I believe, true art carries with it the power to become whatever the viewer needs to see. The story of Aletta Pieters made me cry. I remember her vision of the painting even now: .She looked up to it imploringly. "You think that somewhere girls actually live like that - just sitting so peaceful like?" To young Aletta, bruised, abused, and neglected by life, the painting was of something she couldn't find the strength to hope for.

Printable Version California Center for the Book Director Mary Menzel interviews California author, Susan Vreeland in Winter 2007 Public Libraries The November/December issue of Public Libraries features Mary Menzel, the director of the California Center for the Book , interviewing bestselling California author Susan Vreeland whose work, Girl in Hyacinth Blue , gained Vreeland international acclaim. Called “Huckleberry Moments: An Interview with Susan Vreeland,” Menzel’s interview prompts Vreeland, a longtime English teacher in San Diego high schools, to address Vreeland’s genuine and specific gratitude for San Diego Public Library ’s excellent services. Among her other laudatory comments, Vreeland says of her California library, “You can imagine how grateful I was for the branch library book transfer system in San Diego, whereby I could telephone the central library and ask for obscure books to be sent to my branch library.” Further, Vreeland notes her “experience” as professional writer made her “conscious” of the importance of library service. “All intellectual labor,” she says, “is collaborative. Unfortunately, the research providers are seldom acknowledged.”

40. Crescent Blues | Writer Interview: "Susan Vreeland: Living In The Spirit Of Art" susan vreeland Artistic Passion by Dawn Goldsmith. A funny thing happened on susan vreeland s way through lymphoma . http://www.crescentblues.com/5_3issue/int_vreeland.shtml

Susan Vreeland: Living in the Spirit of Art Susan Vreeland (Photo Courtesy of Susan Vreeland) A funny thing happened on Susan Vreeland 's way through lymphoma. After narrowing Vreeland's focus to the bare essentials of living and dying, the experience opened her horizons to the "beauty and soulfulness" of art. Suddenly a woman with a mission, Vreeland surrounded herself with art books and let the wonder she found there draw her back to balance and harmony. Ultimately, the hundreds of artists, paintings and sculptures she read about set the course for the next stage of her life's journey. Vreeland's creative purpose veered from the classroom and short story writing to novels that related art to everyday people. The combination magnified the subjects' lives and touched readers, turning the first novel she wrote after her hospital stay, Girl in Hyacinth Blue , into a bestseller. Vreeland's latest release, The Passions of Artemisia , takes readers on a tour of the world of 17th century art as seen through the eyes of a young woman, Artemisia Gentileschi, who would become one of its most controversial painters. Art plays a prominent role in Vreeland's upcoming projects too.
