Island Treasures: Susun Gallery — Kailua-Kona

Susun Gallery is an acrylic painter, hula dancer, lover of the ocean, and all things Hawaiian. She opened Susun Gallery Artschool in Santa Cruz, California in 1987, after a career as a sign painter in the San Jose area, and as an art consultant in Carmel.

The Artschool is home to hundreds of talented art students, all learning to draw, paint, and sculpt their world, their way. Susun now lives in Kailua-Kona and shares her art knowledge with our community.

She is the art teacher at Kahakai Elementary School, and recent creator of The Missing Piece. The fourth-grade children at Kahakai School painted this monk seal conservation mural that will travel to all the islands, and find its home at The Bishop Museum on O‘ahu.
