SUSANMCGOVNEYHANSON was born in California, educated at UCLA and the Art Center School of Design (as did John D. Dawson) moving to Hawaii in 1963, where she lied on the windward side of O'ahu. (Our family kept horses over there- one used to reach it by going over the Pali from Honolulu.)

Susan, like Madge Tennent and Cornelia MacIntyre Foley, was noted  for her Hawaiian women.
"My paintings portray the strength, grace and gentleness of the Hawaiians honoring their culture with dignity and respect.

 She died in 2011 leaving a great body of work honoring the Hawaiian people and their life.


Paintings:
    Top- Ipu Sunset
     2nd - Wahine Wa'a
     3rd - Conversation in Purple
     Bottom- Trio Conversation
