Ombre Stripes 2 by Sue Marrazzo

Last night was the opening reception of the Art Association of Harrisburg's Art School Annual. The show runs June 28th - July 18th, 2013.This is a show just for teachers and their students . I was a substitute Experimental Mixed Media Art teacher for Fall 2012 and Winter 2013. I was honored to be asked to exhibit as an instructor there. My entry is shown below. I encouraged my students also to submit artwork created in our class. I was pleasantly surprised to see my students and their work. They WON...1st and 2nd prizes!

Kudos to Judy, Tina and Cynthia! 

I am so proud of all of you!

The Finishing Touches by Sue Marrazzo

This afternoon, I was putting some finishing touches on one of my new paintings for an ART exhibit that I will be hanging at The Highmark Corporate Offices. Well, I had a little company in the studio, Boo Boo, my daughter's cat. He loves to watch me draw, paint, drip and create. He is so intrigued by ART and has been known to steal my brushes!!! Well, he wanted my china marker: so he won, and I got another. I finished this painting on the easel today. It's always interesting having the cat in the studio!

Another Look into ART Camp #1 by Sue Marrazzo

I'd like to share a few more photos from the last day of the Art Camp that I taught this week. The lesson was an abstract painting. The students picked their colors, used a brayer and learned how to make drips with paint. Take a look at these paintings done in class....They will be hung up in each of their homes, and enjoyed for many years!

Youth Art Camp #1 by Sue Marrazzo

Take a LOOK...Below are some photos that I took today of my students with their MIXED MEDIA Self-Portraits. I am teaching a one-week Youth Painting Class at the ART CENTER SCHOOL AND GALLERIES OF MECHANICSBURG, PA.  The students created their ART in 3 steps. First they collaged the background with torn papers, then painted their face, neck, hair and shoulders, and last they drew their facial features with a sharpie. 

The end result is AWESOME!!!!

 They were all HAPPY with their Paintings!

La France by Sue Marrazzo

This is a NEW experimental art piece. I used a vintage found image, spray paint, a found object, acrylic medium, and a found frame. I gifted this to a fellow art teacher who liked it. She said she will share this with her students.

 So it will be appreciated!

Saving Love by Sue Marrazzo

This collage was made with found papers, and found objects on canvas. I used a gloss medium over top of the papers, that is why there is a glare in the photo. It was a collage that came easy. I always liked red, white, and black together. It's one of those striking color combos. 

It recently went home with a new owner.

Summer Collective by Sue Marrazzo

This mixed media art work is going to a good home this week. 

Summer Collective was done with found papers, acrylics, image transfers, ink, mediums, and more. It is colorful, and reminds me of a quilt.
