Susan Saenz-Bod is a Stockton artist, a “stay-at-home mom” with two children, four and six years old, who marvels at her children and their creations.

Attracted to color as a young girl she never envisioned herself as an artist. It was her brother gave her paints and encouragement. As an adult, Raoul Mora has served as her teacher and mentor and helped her in keeping her own artistic vision pure.

Since the 1990s she has exhibited locally and won awards for her fresh, natural style of art
