Susan Carruth
Covington, LA
Metal (Silver) / Jewelry
Guild member since 1988
Susan was recently commissioned to create a special piece of jewelry as a gift for Barbara Bush. Her jewelry designs are imaginative commentaries on nature and life’s experiences. She draws on her childhood experiences of growing up in New Orleans, as well as the highs and lows of being a responsible adult and parent. Susan’s work shows the variety of working with metal. Some of her jewelry designs are loosely structured with lots of moving parts, other designs are highly structured and technically very demanding to create. Susan says that the freedom to move among these different approaches brings the balance she is seeking in her creative life.
