Sue is Artist of the Month of January

2010-12-29T23:10:00.004-05:00

Here is the part of the press release for the Artist of the Month, Sue Gouse!

To herald the New Year, the Landings Art Association is delighted to showcase Sue’s work as the January 2011 Artist of the Month. A reception in her honor will be held on Sunday, January 9 from 5:00 – 6:30 PM in the Plantation Club Gallery. The reception features a members’ bar and cheese/fruit buffet compliments of the Landings Art Association. Please RSVP to Sue at gousehouse@hotmail.com for a gate pass.
About her art, Sue says, “My love of beauty, color, texture, space, detail, variety, and light in God’s world delights and fascinates me. I attempt to capture scenes that enable the viewer to feel he or she is in that scene either in memory or desire. I am not making political or theoretical statements. Rather, I am simply recording my footprint during my lifetime, which I hope is a legacy for my five children and their children.”

Sue’s work is widely recognized for its merit. She has been juried into numerous shows, including many notable exhibitions in the southeast. Recently, she participated in a Telfair Jepson Museum show. Often published and displayed, her work can be found in scores of galleries throughout the region, as well as numerous private and corporate collections.

Sue lives in Savannah, is married to Dr. John Gouse, and operates Sue Gouse Inspirations, Gallery 9, located in City Market, Savannah. She is a member of, and an involved volunteer for, Oil Painters of America, Landings Art Association, Tybee Art Association, Savannah Art Association, The Bascom, and The Art League of Highlands.For more information about Sue Gouse, visit her website suegouseinspriations.com or her blog, suegouseinspirations.blogspot.com.

Gallery Painting Lessons!

2010-10-10T22:07:00.002-04:00

Hello, All You Art Lovers!

Have you ever thought about learning to paint? Until 5 years ago, I had never painted. I went to a class at a local art gallery in North Carolina with a friend. She took her class and left. I took the class and could not leave for a week! I was smitten with painting fever! I discovered a whole new world of expression. Maybe you have been wondering if you would enjoy painting...come for a lesson and see for yourself how much fun it is to find your creative spirit!

Perhaps you know someone who wants to learn to paint...you could buy lessons for a gift!

I will be teaching beginning oil painting in my gallery in City Market in Savannah. Please email me gousehouse@hotmail.com or call me 912-667-4378 to schedule private or semi-private lessons at your convenience.

If you live outside of the Savannah area, I would be happy to schedule a workshop for you and your friends in Savannah or in your area. Just contact me for details. I plan to have a workshop for several days at Tybee Island in the future...anyone interested?

Artfully, Sue

So, come see us - we are the destination of choice among the most discerning travelers!

Note Card News

2009-01-01T22:36:00.001-05:00

Here are some great ideas for my packs of 6 different note cards made from my oil paintings:
1. Send thank you or special notes on them.
2. Frame them for a small works collection or collage. (They won't fade for a long time.)
3. Gift them, or add them to a gift basket. Great for secretaries or boss days or get well gifts.
4. Use them for favors at a wedding or bridge party. (My Savannah Scenes packs are great
for wedding favors depicting special venues.)
5. Use them for business correspondence with your information &/or logo on the back of each
card (small set up charge).
6. Use them for scrapbooking (they are acid free).
7. Use them for invitations or Christmas cards (small set up charge to print the information
inside the card).

I can make note cards from commissioned paintings, too, for special, individualized stationery.
I have over 20 different themed packages of cards - from beaches to mountains, oceans to lakes, cities to landscapes, people to wildlife. Take your pick! And the best part is the 6 card package with envelopes is only $12.50!!
