Make Difference Ordinary is an original work by Susan Washington, created in 2026.

48” x 48”
Oil, acrylic, ink on canvas

This work is part of the Subway Sonnet series, a body of work rooted in memory, rhythm, and the visual language of the city. Drawing from Susan Washington’s experience growing up in New York in the late 1980s, the surface builds through layers of marks, text, and fragments, echoing the accumulation of graffiti, posters, and lived history across urban spaces.

Images, lyrics, and symbols intersect throughout the work, referencing postwar American art, neo-expressionism, and contemporary culture. Each piece carries its own internal language, often centered around themes of affirmation, energy, and personal narrative.



Ships from the artist’s studio in Baltimore. Certificate of authenticity included.
