Art TRADER<br />

m a g a z i n e<br />

Have you any favorite artists?<br />

Suzan: I have one all-time, super, favorite artist, and have loved<br />

his stuff for many years. He is a science fiction illustrator named<br />

BROM. His stuff is very shocking, and dark. But, I love his talent.<br />

I am envious that I cannot draw like he does. A lot of people are<br />

surprised when they look him up because he’s so different than the<br />

happy, bright colors that I normally use.<br />

Your artwork covers a wide range of media. Can you share<br />

some techniques with us?<br />

Suzan: This is a very hard area for me. I never used “planned”<br />

techniques, and when I try, they never work like they are supposed<br />

to. I just mainly do whatever I want, and keep working it (sometimes<br />

with over 20+ coats of paint, and collage) until I like something. I<br />

buy books about techniques--end up looking at the pretty pictures,<br />

and never read the first word or instruction. There’s not anything<br />

you can’t learn by trial and error; that’s my technique.<br />
