“Roac: The Old Raven of Ravenhill" Oil On Canvas, 24"X30"
illustrating children’s books. I am stepping up to higher pastures every day, seeking broader horizons, studying masterworks from past and present artists and just "getting to it." Practice is everything." What are you currently working on? “As I live and breathe art every day, my biggest battle is what to paint or draw next. I enjoy Plein Air painting, especially in historical places reflecting our nation's past. I have always been captivated by the “West” so will be completing many works using this genre. My children and I are involved in civil war reenacting which helps enrich authenticity in my works. Mostly, I am preparing works for art shows and galleries. I am illustrating a new children’s book coming soon called “The Far Turn.” What’s next for you? “SusieGordonFineArt.com is my FASO website. Please check this site often for new works and sign up for my newsletter, Instagram, and Facebook page. Susie will be attending the Stampede Western Invitational Art Exhibit and Sale in Greeley, Colorado June 22nd-July 4th, 2018. Every day I find new blessings to behold. Life is never without strife but having faith will always get you through. I am thankful to be able to be an artist and pursue the passion that is within me." For sales and more information visit:
