Everyone who sees my artwork asks that question. I knew I was on to something when I began drawing with colored pencils, which are perfect for drawing in a realistic style. My favorite subjects are simple, everyday objects. I use bold, bright colors and I love to incorporate shiny, reflective surfaces. My paintings are done on archival paper. I layer many colors, often six to twelve layers, until they are vivid and saturated. The itch to draw came when I retired. Facing my 60th birthday, I figured it's now or never! Did you see the movie, “City Slickers” with Billy Crystal? He said it’s all about finding the one thing that’s important to you. I am a juried member of the Best of Missouri Hands and the Greater St. Louis Art Association. I am also a member of the Colored Pencil Society of America. My work is sold locally at Wood Icing Gallery in Chesterfield. I also sell my work on Etsy: www.susietenzer.etsy.com.
