She was commissioned to paint scenes of A Night in Old San Antonio in La Villita for the 2001 and 2007 “NIOSA” posters, by the San Antonio Conversation Society. She is listed in Who’s Who in American Art.
Sue has traveled in Europe and Central America and enjoys capturing the flavor of these interesting places as well as the southwest. She is a native of Dallas and has lived in Austin with her husband since 1987.
Artist’s Statement
"Painting began as a hobby for me, but soon became my passion. I found joy and inspiration in the simple things in life, which we sometimes take for granted. A splash of color or a pattern of light intrigued me. I often work in a series until I feel I have exhausted my enthusiasm, and then move on to new challenges. Nature has always been a favorite subject for me, with endless possibilities. Watercolor has its challenges, but I welcome them! I have studied with the masters of transparent watercolor and hope to continue to grow as an artist and share my vision with my students."
