SUSAN'S . . . PLAYING AGAIN!

REEDS monoprint inks on paper I have been gearing up for two workshops with one  completed this past Monday and Wednesday and the  second upcoming next week.  I really enjoy interacting with others, for at those times  the 'line' between students and instructors become blurred.  By this I mean, that amazingly one learns from one's  student in every session. Their creativity and manner of  execution is so unique, that it touches territories I may  have never thought of. So it's always a learning experience  for all involved! With that said, I'm posting 2 monoprints I created last year  in a workshop at Remarque / New Grounds in Albuquerque.  Love REEDS for it's simplicity and fluidity! Blue Monprint and additional pieces   were created  specifically to use for a future life drawing with graphite.  BLUE MONOPRINT monoprint inks on paper 

 FIRE + PASSION 6" x 6" pastel on sanded paper 12" square mat, AR glass, + gold frame SOLD - Private Collector Preparing for 2 workshops on pastel skies at Albuquerque's  OASIS. Always so much to remember and gather together,  but do enjoy it much! And I'm happy to write that both classes are Sold Out! Soon I'll be posting pics of the 2 events.  There will be another workshop on Unique Pastel Still Lifes in November, so will keep all posted of dates and when  registration opens.

FLORALS ON WOOD 10"x10" pastel / wash on cradled wood panel Just returned from California for the closing  of Tirage Art. Sad . ..  sad . . . sad. Now working on imagery for an upcoming class  at OASIS of Albuquerque. This class will be held  November 12th and 14th.  FLORALS ON WOOD is a sample illustrating the  use of base washes onto a wooden substrate. Looser,  sketchy, and a visual blended appearance.
