         I am an American artist whose been living in Costa Rica for about   Some of my digital creations are too complex to even attempt
         15 years. I am well known here for my detailed realistic floral   to paint such as New Toys and some, like my newer images, the
         paintings and paintings of Costa Rica life. These paintings and   Popcorn Family, done purely for fun, are ideal for canvases that
         other paintings I have done can be seen on my Fine Art America   are shaped like the image. And the Popcorn Family evolved from
         website, either by my name or www.SuZahn-king.pixels.com. You   a cube. And the Popcorn Family lives in a large mushroom along
         can also simply Google me by my name. And by the way, I am not   with all the other members, pets, friends, politicians and parrots.
         the lady selling real estate in Arizona.             Welcome to the Art of SuZahn!
         It all started with a cube. And from there, with a huge library of
         different images, I pick a fabric or a black and white images or
         another shape, distort it with Photoshop into my cube and then
         using different tools. I warp, distort and move it around until I see
         something I like. And then I may look at it for a while and look at lots
         of images until I find something that I can incorporate into that cube
         I have created.And from there, I just keep adding or subtracting
         things. When I finally wind up with an image I like, I see how I can
         have this image evolve into a painting on a canvas and have the
         canvas the same shape as the image. For years I never understood
         why it was necessary to have a painting square. Why couldn’t it be
         round or shaped like a cube or shaped like whatever.
