Susan's artistry is the result of sheer determination,
dedication and a little bit of good luck. Coming from a background in music and
dance, "the creativity was there, it just had to be nurtured and channelled."
Fortunately, a Teddy Bear store opened locally, run by two very
talented ladies who provided the introduction to soft sculpture art and shared
their mastery of sewing and design. Although primarily self taught, "many other
gifted artisans have been instrumental in my development as an artist and my
creations are my thank you to all who have encouraged and inspired
me."
