Growing up in Minnesota, Susan Edginton started drawing horses and flowers on the sidewalk with chalk. Like many budding young artists, her parents got her a watercolor set and later she bought herself an oil painting set and canvases and made a creative studio under the stairs in the basement.
In high school, she was drawn to art, music, and theater. After graduating, she and her family took a three-week family trip to Germany, Italy, France, and England, which piqued her interest in art history. While attending college in Northern Minnesota, she spent one year living in Denmark, taking classes, traveling, and living with a Danish family. These enriching experiences furthered her passion for art and photography.
