B I O Sue Layman Lightman, a renowned artist, places daring geometric shapes and empowering brilliant colors that create new energetic dimensions. The S U E unique style of Sue’s paintings is as diverse as the culture and creative environment in which we live. Sue believes today we are forced to contend L A Y M A N with the forces of light and darkness. What causes a person to desire one or the other has always been a mystery. In her paintings, these forces find L I G H T M A N harmony, rhythm and adventure. A r t i s t / G a l l e r y O w n e r Sue opened her art gallery, Sue Layman Designs, in Memphis, Tennessee's South Main Historic Arts District in 2006. The modern three-story structure showcases only paintings from her collections.
