Art by Lady Z

Susan Bagrationoff is a professional surrealist whose body of work focuses on mythology and mysterious creatures. Susan M. Susan is a native Floridian.

Faeries and folklore are the subjects of her creations using the beauty of nature within the Pacific Northwest for realistic reference. Bagrationoff (Lady Z) is an ethereal artist living in Fort Myers, Florida. Her subject matter of choice for her paintings are ethereal creatures such as angels and other ghost-like figures. Much of Susan's recent works have incorporated the concepts of the energy

of the soul within plants, animals and human beings. Her latest bodies of work include The Runes Stones (her latest), Tarot Cards, and the Chakras . Born and raised in Miami, she is still one of the palest people in town! Susan's favorite music type is gothic/industrial and she often attends clubs that spin such music on Wednesday nights. This type of music inspires her since the themes of many of the songs relate to mysterious and often magickal subjects. Susan also adore New Age music for the same reason.

SOLD! I recently heard the news that my mixed media piece, "Surreal Discovery", which was on display at The California Nature Art Museum in Solvang California, SOLD! This was my first time my artwork was a part of an exhibition in a museum and it was one of the works that was purchased during the show. It's been a surreal experience to learn that my Sonoma Sunshine flower inspired piece found a forever home. Thank you to the art collector who purchased my creation!

And thank you for sharing this exciting news with me along my artistic journey. 💜

PROGRESS POST: I am LOVING how the colors are forming unexpected hues within the driftwood inspired dryads! The faces of these secretive beings are starting to emerge as they peer at the world from the cracks of the withering wood. Getting close to completing this mysterious composition of souls. Stay tuned for the completed piece rather soonish.

Thank you for reading this progress post! 💜

VIDEO PROGRESS POST: Here's a short video highlighting the progress on my driftwood inspired dryad! The petrified wooden skin of this old soul is being conjured rather quickly. And I have to say that I am LOVING how the colors of the driftwood are developing!

PROGRESS POST: It's been a while since I shared the progress on this dryad bound in driftwood, so here it is! I LOVE the grass bed on which these ancient souls rest, which has been completed using an impressionistic technique. The eyes within the wood are still in development, but they are close to being fully conjured.

The petrified skin of the driftwood-clad dryad is about to be formed, so stay tuned for another progress post soonish.

Thanks for taking a moment to read this creation update! 💜

JUST COMPLETED: "Dilly Dallying" 2026. This 12" x 12" original acrylic mixed media painting catches playful water nymphs meandering among the rocks of the Green River. Look closely to get a glimpse of these mysterious souls disguised as the cool waters of the river.

This piece was conjured using copious amounts of modeling paste to form the shapes of the river rocks. An impressionistic technique was utilized to create the small stones between the larger rocks. Metallic mediums were used to form the silhouettes of the water nymphs, developing the movement within the piece.

Thank you for taking the time to check out my latest creation. 💜
