True Colors: Life Through The Lens of Color
Color is a language and a vital part of the artist’s vocabulary. We use them to represent emotional and psychological states, our experience of the spiritual and the mundane, or to bring a favored mythos to life. With the use of color we can, without words, convey meaning, world views, and the nature of our innermost thoughts.

SUSANNA LEE-Susanna Lee Lucky-Deluxe has performed her one-woman shows throughout the United States. Susanna Lee is a standup comic, storyteller, and patron saint to provocateurs everywhere. She’s been professionally touring the country since August 20, 1996, when the Kramer International entertainment group, out of WhoCaresville, Michigan booked her on a college comedy tour, with a show titled “You Laugh, You Lose”. It was every bit as rigorously dispiriting as the title of the show would suggest, but her passion for performing survived, and in September 2017, Susanna Lee gave her first TED talk at TEDxKU, on the University of Kansas campus, where she’s also guest lectured on the artistry of standup comedy.
