The Artist

Susan Link was born in Hendersonville and raised in the small town of Brevard, NC. She attended Auburn University in Alabama for a brief period of time, but quickly returned to the mountains of North Carolina, where she plans to always call home. Susan received her Bachelors Degree from the University of North Carolina at Asheville in 1993. She returned to college in 2002 to pursue her childhood dream of becoming a furniture maker and graduated from Haywood Community College.

Her work is influenced by the Craftsman Revival of the 1970’s, a tradition that places much emphasis on craftsmanship and quality of work. When not in the shop, Susan can be found hiking or biking with her Jack Russell Terrier, Daniel.
