illustration of A waft of it takes us right back to Grandma’s dresser top.  Close your eyes and remember the vintage atomizers.  Showy pinks and lavenders mirrored doubly in the glass underneath.

Profile

Whether creating whimsical images or serious, Susan pulls out images like a long draw on salt water taffy. From her southern roots, color has wooed her from early childhood. Her Mother often said, “She HAS to be making something!” Early work began in watercolors and more recently digital works cried out, “Scoot over and make room!” From two mediums different styles emerge but from the same heart. From her long stint in the Orient and subsequent travels in the world, she brings some popping color to the palette both digitally and softer, in watercolors. With her you’ll hopefully find some laughter or quiet spots in this sometimes crusty edged world. Now out of northern MS (the Memphis Metro) she’d be pleased to work with you on creating images that are (hopefully)… eye-catching. And in time if they compliment your project ideas with a double take, consider her smiling…ear to ear. Websites: SusanLugarArt.com SusanLugarDesigns.com for Art Licensing
