My last name, Kirshenbaum (Kirschenbaum), means Cherry Tree. Now I’m using everything in my life’s toolbox, the cherries and the pits.

I’m married to Jack, and we have two cats and no kids. We live high on a hill in San Francisco, CA, USA. I write, draw, paint, collage, take photos, sew, cook, entertain, design, and make things. I like to watch films, take classes, walk, dance, and travel – but most of all – I love to draw people.

Read more about me here and take a look at my latest photos below.

May 16 is the Lunar Eclipse! Here’s a photo of me (tiny) at an art show in Frank Gehry’s Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris. Photo by Tom Sparks. @srkirshenbaum #frankgehrybuilding #architecture #spraypaintart #portraitphotography #barelyvisible

Here’s a tiny snippet of the performance piece I saw a few days ago at ICA. She’s a commanding performer with strong ideas. So happy to have Mary participate in the Invisibility Collective conversations and exhibitions despite her busy CCA schedule. @mary.graham.art @ccaexhibitions @ccafinearts @icasanfrancisco #performance art #voice #callandrepeat #anscestors @anno.kim

I’m giving an Art Talk tomorrow (tickets free on Eventbrite) about my piece “Appear/Disappear” in the “Women Rising” show at The Drawing Room at 780 Valencia Street: April 5, from 4-6:30pm, featuring multiple artists. I’ll be talking about this piece which I originally created for my series “See Through Us” shown for the first time at the Invisibility Collective’s initial exhibition “Seen x Unseen” in Dec 2020 at Radian Gallery. @invisibilitycollective #appear #invisiblewomen #olderwomenrule @radiangallery @drawingroomsf @inside.outside.project @curatedstate #rootdivision @sfwa_artistsgallery @artspansf @sfcityartgallery #sfartist #digitalartist #procreateartist #ipadartist #figurativeartist #worksonfabric #lifedrawing #gesturedrawing #modeldrawing #artshow #contemporaryart #drawing #portraits #artforsalebyartist #womenartists #artgallery #artstudio #artpractice #bayareamodelsguild #portraitdrawing #digitaloriginalart #digitalcollage #redbubbleartist #spoonflowerartist #wordpairs #upsidedown

When was the last time you really looked at your lettuce? 🥬

Another shooting in Minneapolis.I cannot stop crying. feeling that the world is falling apart morally. it is so easy seemingly to kill another human. To in a second wipe out a young man’s Existence And to spread pain and despair so completely easily with seemingly no resistance from so many other humans. I invite all who read this to stand in front of your houses this evening with a lit candle and say a prayer for all who have died through police brutality and racism. — Angela Tirrell, Invisibility Collective

“White / Colored” installation art in the desert by Noah Purifoy seen near Joshua Tree (by Collective Member Susan Kirshenbaum).

Invisibility Collective creates, promotes, and disseminates arresting art and ideas about those who feel invisible, those who are fighting to have a cogent voice. As a member of the Collective I make art work not only about my fellow humans, but also about creatures of the earth and sky, and the planet itself. I subscribe to the brilliant idea my painter aunt and mentor in Rome, Pucci Clerici, has lobbied for over decades: there should be a representative for planet Earth in the UN!
