I'm a self-taught artist who loves to draw and create.
Glitter?  I can't get enough of it.
I love things girlie and sparkley and I loved shabby chic before I knew there was a name for it!
My entire life I have created art in one form or another. I've been very blessed to be able to work at doing what I love to do.  Among other things, for several years I was the lead artist and dept manager for a high-end children's wear line in Scottsdale, Arizona.  I have also owned and operated a lovely shabby chic type boutique in the historic seaport village of Port Townsend, Washington. I continue to do that with an online shop as well at www.susiescott.com.
I have to say though, that I am happiest drawing and creating one-of-a-kind art pieces, that are joyful and bring a smile to your face. I know that there are people in the art world that don't consider things that are cute and happy to be serious work but, I feel that today, especially, it is seriously important!
I have been inspired by many things but, I love vintage illustrations the best.  And cartoons from the 20's, 30's and 40's are my absolute favorites.  I am especially crazy for vintage Disney such as early renditions of Mickey Mouse in black and white (before he was Mickey) and the Silly Symphony color cartoons. These have been my inspirations from as far back as I can remember.  I hope my interpretations bring a smile to the face and a little joy to the heart and that they are enjoyed as much as I enjoy drawing and creating them.

I grew up on the shores of the Delaware Bay where as a child, I loved playing make believe, loved paper dolls, and my favorite medium was a crayon.  I now enjoy sculpting animals and giving them a personality.
I am now retired and spend most of the time on both coasts with my seven grand daughters and one grand son.  They range in age from nineteen years to six months.  I am known as "Ginny" to all of them. 
Current works are inspired by my grand children who give me ideas for my "works of whimsy".
I have owned folk art shops on the East Coast with my daughter where our folk art was sold.  We had great fun creating one of a kind pieces from salvaged objects.
