AbouT THE ARTIST

Sue came to drawing late in life, but things happened quickly once  she started. Her art has been published in magazines and an instructional art book, juried into national art shows, and won awards  in international art competitions. Her artwork grows out of and reflects her passion for animals, and her appreciation of their strength and beauty as living, breathing art. She and her husband live in a rural area with their two horses and dogs, who serve as both inspiration and subject models.  She has recently ventured into the exciting world of digital fantasy art,  as well as creating book covers and children’s book illustrations .
