In fact, in the very early years, the walls of her house became her crayon “canvas.” After that was shut down by her parents, she became a little more creative as she took her pencils and drew behind the curtains. That was only discovered when the curtains came down!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSusan’s parents were both artists. And later in life, when she traced her family tree, she discovered that she has family ties to \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRembrandt\u003c\/strong\u003e. So, the love of art and the desire to create art run very deep in her family. This may explain the non-stop focus, passion, and drive to make art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShe has always had an \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eintense level of curiosity\u003c\/strong\u003e. She says her favorite subjects are the ones right in front of her at any given time. Whether in real life or in photos, Susan can find the spark in almost anything she sees. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTake “gobs” of photos\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSusan takes pictures all the time.

Nearly all students start from different positions. They may have a photo or be painting en plein air. Or they may draw a light grid on their canvas or paint an underpainting of varying levels of detail. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSo, she committed herself to doing what those rare great teachers do. \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShe found a way to help\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShe created a system\u003c\/strong\u003e. She helped students find their way through a painting. \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShe drew them a map\u003c\/strong\u003e.
