Susiehyer                             back to gallery artists

Susiehyer’s work can be seen in many private and corporate collections. She maintains a home and studio in Evergreen, CO where she lives with her husband and two children. She continues to challenge herself artistically, traveling to paint en plein air, and working from sketches and photos in the studio. Recent painting trips include Tahiti, Hawaii, Corsica, France, Taos, Rocky Mountain National Park, Portugal, California, and the New Jersey Coast. She currently teaches at the Evergreen Art Center.

She is featured in the newly released “Landscapes of Colorado Mountains and Plains."  We are proud to feature over 50 paintings in this One Woman Show.   website
