Susan Farinelli Cowan has loved art her whole life and had used her artistic talents by drawing and doing crafts while she raised her family and pursued her career in healthcare. She was employed in various hospitals and in the last 20 years worked both for HCA and Lifepoint Health in the corporate offices.  In the 1990s she began painting murals, which was the beginning of her love of painting.  There was never much time for painting until she retired in 2017. She now has time to pursue her first love full time.  This has been, and is, a time of learning, improving and trying various mediums.  She paints mostly in acrylics and has sold several paintings.  She loves travel so most paintings are rendered from original photographs and contain old architecture, alleys, towns and people.  In addition, she loves animals so there is usually an animal or two in each painting.

Susan also uses art in writing and giving murder mystery dinner parties.  She and her husband had an LLC for many years called Mystery Adventures and provided fun parties for various companies.  They still provide these on occasion.
