| Introduction | Hi, my name is Sue sizemore, I have been doing some form of drawing ,painting or crafts since I was very little. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest,up near Mt. St. Helens, gave me perfect opportunity to draw lots of the wildlife I grew up around. After my first son was born 26 years ago, I started teaching art classes for children and adults in pastels and watercolors, then I moved on to learning scrimshaw and selling my scrimshaw on bone and fossilized ivory at trade shows and sportsman shows. That grew into designing teeshirts from scratchboard drawings and opening up several inline shops selling them , and also hand made mohair teddy bears ..I had my next child 18 years ago, and After some changes in my life, decided to do more painting ,and have been designing and creating one of a kind oil painted cloth dolls , painted and engraved gourds, also needle felting..I seem to always find something new I want to try. I am self taught , grew up with a family that was very creative, and so it is now how I live my life, I create every day if I can , and LOVE it! I spend my days taking care of my 3 sweet little cats, a lab, named Bucky and my daughter Amy. |
