ARTIST'S STATEMENT

Susan Heidi began drawing figurative works at age five ­ fascinated by the ability to create a
likeness on paper, this quickly became a passion. The inspiration for her pin-up art is today's
retro pinup movement which embraces the nostalgia of a bygone era and spices it up with a
modern, take-charge attitude.

Susan is a self-taught artist working in watercolor or acrylic paints. Her aim is always to create an
image that comes alive. Translucent skin tones are accomplished by layering many thin washes
of paint applied first with a brush and then an airbrush. Susan's work is compared to that of the
well known pinup masters. Her work has been exhibited by invitation with the top erotic artists
from around the world and is collected in the United States and Europe.
