Susie’s Bio, Awards, Events, Galleries, Media

My current passion is creating art on my iPad with the many fabulous new art apps available. There’s no mess, no clean-up and no need to store paintings waiting for their next home! My abstract digital collages are full of of the same energy, texture and excitement as my traditional work. Instead of using washi papers, acrylic ink, watercolor and found objects, I use a variety of iPad art apps. Whimsy and play are still my top goals.

Through the generous teaching grant from the Kenneth A. Picerne Foundation’s <Artist Outreach Project> I learned to teach both iPad art and traditional collage. Knowing how to do something is far different from teaching it….as I found out. And by the way, I LOVE teaching.

As a young child I was the fortunate student of Gerald Brommer, a world-class elementary school teacher who has become a well-loved international artist. I loved when we studied the ocean and raised my hand vigorously to draw the fish. Mine had bright colors, lots of interesting  lines and reasonable fish-like shapes. The vibrant paintings and organic intersecting designs that fill my work today are informed by our years together.

Not content to stay still, I’ve explored life in Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Austin, Atlanta, Hilton Head and now Laguna Woods. I’ve created watercolor and acrylic paintings, large textural abstracts and experimental art, had fund-raisers, shows, rented studios and taught collage and iPad Art classes. Now I’m permanently back home in SoCal and am never leaving!

Hope you’ll join me.
