Coloured Pencil Drawings Biography
Susan holds a BA in Studio Fine Art from the University of Maryland and over the years has taken classes and workshops, plus studied with other master artists in Painting and Drawing to keep her skills honed.
 She has illustrated books, posters and magazines, has taught classes and workshops, and offers her original work and prints through shows, exhibits and her website. Her artwork hangs in numerous collections across the US and is presently exhibited at The Muse Gallery in Longmont, CO.  Two of her drawings have been published in the latest edition of "Best of Worldwide Artists Working in Charcoal, Pastel and Pencil, Vol. I".
Working with colored pencils over the last 25 years, Susan has learned to “paint” with them.  It is a medium of great nuance and control that provides luminous color.  She also paints in oils, being attracted to a looser application of rich, intense color to create larger pieces that can be hung without glass.
Susan's work is classically rendered, with a slightly mysterious patina.  A mystical influence pervades her work, a realistic yet magical treatment of figures, objects, and animals sparked by her love of world mythology and her fascination with women's inner archetypal journeys.
Her memberships include The Colored Pencil Society of America, International Guild of Realism, Portrait Society of America, Longmont Council for the Arts, and  Prospect Artists Association.
Susan moved from Annapolis, MD at the end of 2005 and settled in Longmont, CO.  She works out of her studio located at 1515 Main St., Unit 202, in Longmont.

Pam Belcher is strictly a colored pencil artist. She draws a variety of subjects - whatever suits her fancy at the moment. Pam is especially fascinated by the wondrous patterns and colors found in nature and man made objects. She has been working in colored pencils since 1995. The slow laborious medium suits her working style perfectly, and she usually completely enjoys the process. Sometimes it does become a bit much!

Pam was born in New York, grew up in Denver, and after high school moved to the Seattle area. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Washington State University in 1975, and also attended Burnley School of Graphic Design for further education. She put her art on hold for awhile when she went to Norway for a year in 1981 with her new husband, Ed, who was a visiting scientist working on helium speech unscrambling. Upon returning, she spent several years being a stay at home mom. When her son was in elementary school, Pam offered to help out with art projects. She was immediately put to work and taught a weekly art lesson. It was then that she discovered colored pencils. She started drawing seriously, took a few workshops, read millions of books, and joined the Seattle Chapter of the Colored Pencil Society of America. In that group she met a large number of generous, talented people who have become valued friends and continue to help her hone her craft. Pam also enjoyed teaching drawing at the Northshore Senior Center in Bothell, Washington for fourteen years.

Pam has exhibited widely in the Seattle area as well as in several national exhibits. She had a piece featured in the Best of Colored Pencil Volume 5 by Rockport Publishers. She has two pieces featured in Strokes of Genius 2: The Best of Drawing Light and Shadow by Northlight Books. Pam is a member of the Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA) where she enjoys Signature Status; she is President of the Seattle CPSA District Chapter 207. In 2007 she was juried into the Women Painters of Washington. Besides drawing, Pam does some web site design, and recently retired from working part time doing graphic design and website upkeep. Pam and her husband Ed, a retired electrical engineer, have one son Ken, a guitarist in Los Angeles.
