Susan Cua is a Filipino-born, Chinese Filipino American artist whose work reflects her lifelong passion for painting, music, travel, and cultural heritage. Growing up in Manila, she discovered art early and carried that creative drive to the U.S. at 18, eventually settling in Evanston, Illinois. Supported by the local arts community, she developed a style shaped by her musical studies, piano teaching, and annual travels to Paris and across Europe. Working from her studio at Greenleaf Art Center, she creates soulful, place-inspired pieces that aim to transport viewers—inviting joy, curiosity, and connection while continually expanding her artistic horizons. Susan is a member of Sinag Art Collective, a group of filipino-american artists based in Chicago and neighboring suburbs (sinag.us). Follow Susan: IG @travelerseye2024
