As noted in <a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/index.php\/uws-2012-award-winners\/\" target=\"_blank\">a post last week<\/a>, one of her paintings is a prize winner at the Utah Watercolor Society exhibit at Patrick Moore Gallery.

Her work often includes personal symbols, like stamps in a passport, signifying that the places she\u2019s been have left their mark on her. Martin\u2019s dreamscapes are mostly abstract explorations of color, patterns, and line layered in the kind of overlapping, surreal way that dreams unfold<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13916\" title=\"suemartin\" src=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin-269x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"161\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin-269x300.jpg 269w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin-918x1024.jpg 918w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin-448x500.jpg 448w, https:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15Bytes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/suemartin.jpg 1076w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 161px) 100vw, 161px\" \/><\/a>The pieces in this exhibit are smaller, as befits Art at the Main&#8217;s intimate space. But in her Midvale home, Martin has yet another body of work she&#8217;s eager to show &#8212; larger pieces that show the artistic development of this &#8220;non-traditional&#8221; student who graduates with a BFA in December.<\/p>\n<p>With all the work she&#8217;s been producing, the former public relations director who says she likes writing almost as much as painting, still finds time to write articles for 15 Bytes. The October edition featured <a href=\"http:\/\/artistsofutah.org\/15bytes\/12oct\/page5.html\" target=\"_blank\">her article on The Breakfast Club<\/a>, a group of artists currently showing at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.15thstreetgallery.com\" target=\"_blank\">15th Street Gallery<\/a>. And in November she&#8217;ll be discussing Scott Blaser, a London-based artist who is bringing a group of paintings and prints to Patrick Moore Gallery in November.<\/p>\n<p>Get out there now and check out her work, and stay tuned for the November edition of 15 Bytes, where we&#8217;ll feature a longer profile of the artist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Midvale artist Sue Martin is a busy lady this month.
