From the artist

Words are hard when emotions run deeply, so a practice of art became my visual diary - a way to work out feelings every night at the end of the day.

One day, my friends came over while my diary was drying on a shelf. Terrified, they convinced me to open up my diary and share it with the world.

I'm in awe at how one human's process of finding words can spark another human to find the strength of discovery as well, but art has a way of doing exactly that.

Enjoy.

Exceeded our expectations.

Susie pays attention to details and I love the extra touches she adds to her work. Would recommend her to friends and family.

Susie is an amazing artist.

Found out about her through TikTok. She gave a live art tour of several of her pieces at her home. Saw this piece and new it was perfect for my daughters college graduation. Bonus is that you can purchase originals as well as prints. It was shipped quickly the next day and was gift wrapped with a hand written note. Look forward to purchasing more of her art and can’t wait to she what she creates next.

We’ve been friends for well over 20 years, creating art nearly the entire time. Have we ever shown our artwork TOGETHER? NOPE. Is that about to change? YEP. I will be hosting several special guests in my brick & mortar location at 513 Washington St SE, Olympia, and my BFF Leah Tenney is one of them. She flies in from out of state TODAY and I am thrilled to introduce the PNW to her incredible work.

Would you wear a custom medical boot? #medicalbootartwork #medicalboot #brokenankle #susiegriffinartwork
I shattered my ankle February 25th. The doctors were nice and gave me 2 shiny new plates and 15 screws, but something must be done about this dull grey boot. Hmmmm…what’s an artist to do….? 🧐

Stay tuned…

Throwback a decade to when my little one was “helping” me with this little part of a 4-story art installation for a nonprofit in Illinois. No, I did not let her ride in the cherry picker with me. 😆 #susiegriffinartwork #throwback
Her name is Wednesday, because we are aren’t yet done with the work to bring her peace. 

I’m just barely getting started blocking in the features on Wednesday, the next piece in the powerful woman series. I’m excited about where it’s going and I’m taking a lot of time to work and rework…with intent to make that aspect (keep doing the work to get to peace) the undercurrent of what you FEEL when you look at her. 🥰✨
Thank you for supporting our little family business. ❤️ Here’s a gift for YOU, so you can celebrate right along with us!

Embracing Imperfections: Unveiling the Emotion in ‘Come Back (please)’

By Susie | November 9, 2023

As a painter of emotions, I’m frequently asked to share the meaning behind the artwork image “Come Back (please).” The emotion portrayed in this piece is undeniably clear, but how do we navigate and sit with emotions that are inherently uncomfortable? The imperfect. The raw. The gritty. These are the facets of ourselves we often…

The Meaning of Hope

By Susie | November 8, 2023

The artwork “Hope” is one of my most profound paintings, and I get asked all the time about the meaning. I thought it might be nice to share a little description and more about the meaning of Hope here! Hope is the name of the girl, and she represents all women. Let’s start at the…

AI & Artists

By Susie | August 19, 2023

Artists and creatives have a special ability to bring the humanity into the act of creation. It isn’t only about the artwork produced. It’s about the love, energy, time and meaning that went into the creation. THIS is what makes the art valuable.

Elbows

By Susie | August 18, 2023

When people find out I’ve been a working artist for over a decade, they often ask what my highest achievement is. Elbows. I always just say…Elbows. I stand in the back of a gallery show, anonymous and unrecognized, watching people go around the room to view the work. Art is an expression of an artist…yes.…
