About the Artist:
Susan Sprigg entered Commercial Art freelancing newspaper, and magazine advertisement art at 26 in the late 70's doing artwork for her regular client base illustrating shoes, clothing, portraiture, furniture, architectural housing renderings and the like. She also did album and book covers and illustration. She was the illustrator for Manning Silver Design, a fabulous and very exclusive clothing designer in Beverly Hills. She then became Art Director in the 80's for a major national manufacturer (before the internet and it was so easy to be recognized nationally) COAST, where she designed and sculpted prototype figurines and other products for Hong Kong manufacture and U.S. and international sale. As art director she was head of Advertising and the annual 132 page catalog of merchandise, so she arranged for models, was responsible for concept and design, oversaw the photo shoots, and launched ad campaigns at a time of typesetters, and paste up and doing everything manually or by extremely expensive color process. Correcting color manually, prescribing the inks used and the percentages of change was a wonderful education in itself, in learning to see color, tweak it and learning how chroma sets mood and can elevate the subject matter.
In 2002, Susan entered the world of fine art, and oil painting, after working in a huge variety of mediums for years. She is know for her portraiture, roses, and her ability to instruct. She now instructs privately and publicly, sells her paintings on the internet and her daily Art in Ebay auctions under the headings Daily Paintings, Direct from the Artist, and Susan Sprigg oil paintings.
