Suzy Arrington, founder of Kid Art Originals

Kid Art Originals is a dream come true for Suzy, who finds it an ideal outlet for her personal artistry and love of children's creativity. She places great importance on the details of each KidO's piece, while combining the original work with her own stylistic interpretation.

An accomplished jewelry maker with 20 years of professional experience, Suzy also continues to create original contemporary jewelry in her Lancaster, Pa., studio. She is affiliated with the Lancaster Museum of Art and supports the museum's annual Art in the Park festival by helping children discover their own artistic talents.

Suzy earned a bachelor's degree in fine arts from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and she loves romping in the park with Mabel, her bull mastiff; Floyd, her bloodhound; and Monty, her husband.
