Artist Bio

Sue’s images of the West reflect her Western heritage and home in Teton Valley, Idaho. Her favorite subjects are familiar landscapes, wildlife, and barns, in watercolor, acrylics or mixed media. Sue often begins by working on site, in “plein air.” Her abstract pieces complete her portfolio with a more intimate feel for a subject. Sue’s work can be seen at her website, suetyler.com, Facebook, or events and galleries in Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Washington.

Exhibition Statement

“This body of work is focused on the essence of a landscape, a creature, a season, a mood, or memory. Much of it originates from my many experiences outdoors near my home of 40 years, Teton Valley, Idaho. I seek to create a simple, direct response using abstract elements in my work. I use watercolors, acrylics, or a combination of media to simplify and direct the viewer to examine, interpret, and participate in the work. This creates a dialogue between, artist, viewer, and subject. I enjoy the variety of seasons, moods, wildlife, and human heritage outside my door to discover daily. I hope my work allows people to reflect on a sense of place and our responsibility as stewards of the land and its inhabitants.”
