"I have worked with watercolor for many years and just recently have begun using other media that share a fluid nature such as inks and liquid acrylics. While I often paint for my personal enjoyment and satisfaction, I hope that sharing my art with others brings a bit of joy to their lives." - Suzy Mac

"I want to share with you all a wonderful holiday story. Yesterday, a young woman came into the gallery around lunchtime. She selected one of my lower priced alcohol inks to purchase and told me that her employer, HCDA Structural Engineering at 9 S. Weber had given their employees $100 and told them to go downtown and spend it at a locally owned business!" Thank you HCDA Structural Engineering, have a very Merry Christmas!
