About Me
- Susan Williamson
- ambler, pa, United States
- Painting and drawing was a major part of my life as a child but dissapeared during my teens and through my life as an adult working fulltime in the corporate world. The awakening came one day at the office when I realized that I had to return to art, quit and took a partime job. I began classes at a local art league and painting at home. Another awakening arrived when I had my first intimate encounter with a dairy cow. Then there was the interview with Temple Grandin...no more eating these beautiful creatures or anything with a mother. My goal is to depict these non-human animals as the sentient, beautiful beings that they are. That's it.
I think one of the nicest things about this challenge is that you get to connect with new artists. I can't wait to see what you do next - this is wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Claire!
DeleteThis is my first attempt at blogging with a real commitment and boy was I shocked to see there were actually comments. The only trouble is that I'm such a newbie that I can't see them on the actual blog.
I love your cows. I live on a farm and I try to paint cattle often too. The Charolais ones are easier for me to paint because they have so many different colors in their hides. Black ones are the hardest... well, because they're black. I like the expression in their faces.
ReplyDeleteNo matter what color the fur is, there's a challenge somewhere in the painting!
DeleteLove your warm to cool color transitions!
