Happy Holidays, dear readers!
“The Twelve Days of Christmas” (pen & ink)
Another one of my vintage graphic designs, circa 1985…a poster border for a musical event, if memory serves.

‘Tis the Season!
December 17, 2014 by Susan Sorrell Hill
Welcome!
I am an artist who also writes, working in watercolors and oils. Timeless stories and that most interesting of questions, "Why?" inspire me, and the symbology and archetypes found in myths, fairy and folk tales are especially intriguing. Two of my own illustrated tales are currently seeking their publishers.❦ For queries of any sort *click* on the image above and proceed to my Contact page at www.susansorrellhill.com.

"Untitled" (watercolor, pen & ink) Another on a scrap of watercolor paper. Isn't it the ones when we're not really even trying that have the potential to delight us the most...? I forget this. . . #susansorrellhill #painting #drawing #watercolor #watercolour #aquarelle #fairytale #originalart"The Emperor's Pear Tree" (watercolor, pen & ink) From my unpublished storybook of the same name, loosely inspired by the classic tale, "The Tiger's Whisker." In honor of #smaugust, I will be posting a few dragons this month: one of my favorite subjects. I must not be alone in that, if there's a whole month for dragons here on Instagram, yes? What fun! © Susan Sorrell Hill . . #susansorrellhill #painting #drawing #bookillustration #smaugust #dragon #emperorspeartree #fairytale #originalart #artistsofinstagram"Untitled" (doodle from the archives -- watercolor, pen & ink) In honor of #smaugust, I will be posting a few dragons this month: one of my favorite subjects. I must not be alone in that, if there's a month for dragons here on Instagram, yes? (Thanks for the tip, @artbyemilyhare) What fun! This one is sort of a dragon in love...or maybe just dragon vanity. 😊 © Susan Sorrell Hill . . #susansorrellhill #painting #drawing #illustration #watercolor #smaugust #dragon #love #vanity #watercolour #aquarelle #fairytale #originalart #artistsofinstagram #doodle"Untitled" (watercolor, pen & ink) Where do images come from...I wish I knew. This one feels simultaneously endearing and d.i.s.t.u.r.b.i.n.g. © Susan Sorrell Hill . . #susansorrellhill #painting #drawing #illustration #watercolor #elder #oldwoman #watercolour #aquarelle #fairytale #originalart"The Girl with Silver Hands" (watercolor, pen & ink) © Susan Sorrell Hill [ Available ] ~ What's up with selling open edition prints these days, does anyone know? I'm wondering if they've seriously lost ground on the "desirable List," well behind limited edition prints, original art and small, affordable original art? ~ I'd love to hear your thoughts! . . . #susansorrellhill #girlwithsilverhands #handlessmaiden #grimmsfairytales #watercolor #illustration #painting #women #journey"Jealousy" (watercolor, gouache, pen & ink) She could feel the emotion burning inside, but she could not let it out. Did her cat pick up on this tension and express it with fiery breath, sharp teeth, and glaring eyes? Or maybe there's another story here... © Susan Sorrell Hill (Available) . . #susansorrellhill #watercolor #painting #illustration #emotion #jealousy #cat #artistsoninstagramFacebook
