Profiles of Women
Susie Matthias
An early victim of thalidomide, Theresa Helen "Susie" Matthias of London, Ontario, enjoys a very active life which includes horseback riding, swimming, and furthering her artistic career through the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists.
After being identified at a young age as having promising artistic talent, Susie was privately tutored for several years then educated at a fine arts college. She excels in landscapes but considers people, animals, and seascapes her favourite subject matter.
Her work is featured on the $0.46 stamp in the Canadian Christmas Stamp Series.
