Susan’s Art News

October 24, 2014 By susan

Susan in Front of Chaotic Bliss 72 DPI, 900 Pixels WideThanks for visiting my new and improved website. This has been quite a journey to get to this point. As a lot of you already know, I had an art studio at the Tannery Arts Center for two years. It was a wonderful experience for me and I met lots of great people! The newspaper article (below) about me was obviously written while I was still there. Even though I loved my time there, I decided to explore new options. And right now, this new website is somewhat of a fresh start. If any of you miss the old studio, my husband and I took some videos of my artwork before I left. Since we’re not videographers, they are by no means meant to be professional looking, but instead just give you a little online virtual tour of my work. And yes, they’re right here on this new website.

Here’s an update on what’s been happening this year so far:

For the first four months I was still in my studio doing 1st Fridays every month.
Since I’m a current member of the Santa Cruz Art League, I participated in the Annual Membership Show in January.
From Mar. 7- Mar. 23, I participated in another show at The Santa Cruz Art League called “This is Santa Cruz”.
From May 2- May 21, I participated in a juried art show called “Photography Writing With Light” at the Pacific Art League in Palo Alto, CA. I was also there for the 1st Friday opening of the show.
From Sept. 9 – Sept. 14, I had two paintings displayed at The Santa Cruz County Fair.
Currently, three of my photographs are featured on the cover of The Santa Cruz
County Bar Association Membership Directory July 2014 – June 2015.
And like I said earlier, this website has been my main focus for the last couple of months. I hope you enjoy it!
Below the newspaper article is a picture of my grandchildren I took last year at Natural Bridges State Beach. I dressed them up to look like they were in Hawaii and they posed accordingly. It was fun, but windy! Anyway, I entered that picture in the Photography section of The Santa Cruz County Fair last year and it won 1st place!

Stay tuned for more updates in the future and have a great day!
