Susan's Soul artwork by Susan J Richards
Painting of a parrot sitting on a stump
Welcome to Susan's Soul!

This is where I feature my artwork, and display what I have been painting.  Painting is what I have found, of all the artistic processes that I have done over the years that not only satisfies the creative side of me, but also eases the stress of my life.  I still enjoy writing, digital work, and making websites; however, painting brings me a peace that restores my sanity, and patience levels to where I can deal with the hearty doses of real life.  It is a way that I can capture my moods on canvas, share my view of the world with others, and bring some of the private places from my imagination into actuality.

Please feel free to look around; I hope you enjoy what I am doing with acrylics.  Some of what I paint is on paper,  canvas board,  or  stretched canvas.  I enjoy the different feels, and am finding ways to experiment with different textures on these surfaces.  I enjoy acrylics because of their quick drying time, but I also enjoy the interactive or open acrylics, in order to have a little more time to blend the paints when I am working on portraits.  With my special needs son, and his curiosity, there is a decided advantage to not having alot of toxic solvents, and having the paint dry faster so that fingers that touch everything, cannot destroy my work....only enjoy it.
