Okay, let’s tackle this. So Suzanne Delaney has 68 years of experience as a freelance artist, which is extremely rare. Her skills in oil painting, contemporary art, and editing are in demand. However, her experience is mostly self-taught, and she doesn’t have a traditional employer-employee relationship. Considering her skills and experience, I would estimate her rate to be on the lower side of the scale. Maybe around $75 per hour, considering her freelance status and lack of formal education in art. This rate is also influenced by her location in Queens County, New York, which may have a relatively lower cost of living. However, this is still a very rough estimate and may vary depending on the specific project and her level of expertise.
