Relaying certain aspects of creativity within us assists us on our journey to capture a story and exhibit them through various forums. These forums are not limited to just one expressive platform; instead, they are in the shape of what art piece is used to what wallpaper you choose for your sunroom. Sue De Chiara’s creative streak is exuberant. It is showcased through various dimensions, on a canvas, and through her home decor.
What started as a hobby in 2009 turned into a passionate full-time job. Sue De Chiara curated and promoted her blog, The Zhush, hoping to interact with an audience looking for inspiration in home decor. The Zhush is Sue’s way of reaching out and linking with such enthusiasts, sharing ideas, and trying new home design techniques. She provides excellent ideas, whether refurbishing your home or settling into a new one. She provides feedback and tips with great details, ensuring the reader is not left hanging.
From her living room and kitchen to her children’s room and art studio, each room in her home emanates its own personality. She lets the space speak for itself and relays a story appealing to the eye. Adding her individualistic touch to every room, Sue wants the house to stand out for the story it wishes to narrate. However, home decor and blogging is not her only area of expertise. Due to the vast array of projects she has partaken in, Sue also works part-time as a Home Editor for Bedford & New Canaan Magazine.
While working as a home design blogger, Sue understood how different color palettes work and complement one another. In 2017, She amalgamated her color palette with her creative upbringing and started to paint. She took inspiration not just from daily life but also from moments that motivated her. Each painting that Sue creates emits a style that can complement and add life to your living space.
Within her home, Sue has created her own art studio. She surrounds herself with inspiration, and the room’s natural lighting not only makes the studio beautiful but pushes her to create beautiful art pieces. Posting her paintings on Pinterest and Instagram, Sue started a new idea that gave her a push to do better. Sue De Chiara’s website solely exhibits her abstract artwork and installations in different living spaces.
Balancing two separate websites and publishing diversified content on both of them has kept Sue on her toes. However, she has found her passion through these platforms. Deciding not to limit herself to one conspicuous art form, Sue’s style has created a new perception; that art resides beyond the canvas.
