Susan King is a 30 year resident of the Murphys and Arnold areas. Now retired from full-time teaching, she has realized exciting new times to focus on her exploration of the visual arts. The wonder of the natural world, which surrounds the Sierra foothills and beyond, is her inspiration.
Susan uses a variety of mediums and techniques to create unique emotional connections within her work. Water color, pastels, rice and collage papers and printer’s inks are some of the essential components of many of her pieces. “Every painting is a continual learning experience for me, con- sidering the interaction of composition, design and color and materials. The process can be most humbling and exhilarating.”
Susan has been awarded Ironstone Vineyard’s annual theme division winner of the Obsession Art Show for two years, resulting in their vineyard poster each year. Arts of Bear Valley has selected pieces for support of their Bear Valley Music Fest and Calaveras Big Trees art shows. Art on Main in Murphys displays her originals, giclee prints, and unlimited edition prints. Yosemite Renaissance accepted and displayed her work in the National Park.
A community outreach of the Arts to the children of the Highway 4 communities has been her passion as well, including art classes presented to the students of Hazel Fischer, Michelson and Mark Twain Elementary Schools.
Susan recently wrote, illustrated and published a children’s book entitled Copper Girl: A True Story of a Therapy Dog.
