ABOUT THE ARTIST

Schuszler inherited her artistic talent from her Hungarian father. She began painting with oils at age 10. She received her BFA with a concentration in studio art from Old Dominion University and her MAT from the Citadel in Charleston, SC, where she began a teaching career. Her career and travels have taken her to many beautiful places in both Europe and the Tropics. She especially loves the tropical climate for its vibrant palette and has traveled to Jamaica, St. Lucia, and throughout Florida for inspiration. 

Schuszler resided in Miami for over 10 years, teaching and sharing her passion for art. While living in Miami, she continued her advanced studies in studio art and art education at Florida International University, where she studied oil painting and pastels with David Y. Chang. In 2003, she moved to Gloucester, VA to both teach and exhibit. After teaching in both public schools and at regional community colleges, she retired in 2019 to focus fully on her art. Schuszler exhibits in regional shows and art centers and maintains a studio in her Gloucester home.
