From Boots & Spurs, to calves and flowers, I love to 'scratch'!

STARLING
This is a starling, one of those plain black birds with spots. But when the sun hits it, the bird becomes such a gorgeous irridescently colored creature. This is 5x7 with acrylic inks and is currently available for purchase.sues.art@gmail.com
For beginners: Tools used were curved blade Exacto knife, fiberglass brush, acrylic inks.
Born and raised in the West, I have always been drawn to the cowboy and the Western environment.
My acrylic paintings and scratchboard art try to capture the essence of the moment from the teen cowboy who has lost his chance at a buckle to the yawning lazy horse to the rodeo bull awaiting his chance to explode in the arena.
I have been an artist almost all of my life and thoroughly enjoy interpreting my visions of nature-in-the-raw as well as the nature in your home (pets).
From my art being displayed in the San Diego Museum of Art as a teen, winning countless blue ribbons and reserve sweepstakes at county fairs to placing first at the Utah State Fair, my life has been full and rewarding.
