My love for painting En Plein Air took me out of the studio and into the surroundings we enjoy in our beautiful country. Painting the Alpine splendor of our mountains and streams, or the unique beauty of the Red Rock of Zion, I am always moved each time I’m allowed to venture into it’s wonder and magical vista’s and capture these images. I have studied with Jeff Hein, Rob Adamson, and Bryce Billings. Their unique take on drafting, drawing and Plein Air landscapes, has taken me and my work to new levels afield.
Drawing from life whether it’s the figure or landscape, as an artists we will never stop learning. Jeff, Rob and Bryce are masters at their crafts and I am so incredibly blessed to have been associated with them and allowed to be a part of each of their lives.
I am currently a member of Plein Air Painters of Utah. This allows me to paint with people with the same amount of passion and love of this beautiful country we live in. We are out in a different location each month, so I will look forward to seeing you along the trail, and would hope you will stop and have a chat!
Thank you, It’s going to be a great ride.

Though born and educated in West Germany, Hubert Wackermann depicts his favorite subject matter: the North American Indian, his natural surroundings, and relevant wild life. Mr. Wackermann's depiction of the Native Americans is the result of an intimate knowledge of his subject matter through travel, study and living with different tribes through the years. Thus, the prime characteristic of his work is authenticity enhanced by detail and the constantly changing hues of nature's colors.
Hubert Wackermann was born in Solingen, West Germany, in 1945. He became interested in North American Indians at an early age, and spent numerous hours studying and researching his favorite subject in anthropological museums and libraries.
Mr. Wackermann's first study trip to North American in 1969 provided the opportunity to visit the Indians of Canada. Subsequent trips to Canada, the United States and Mexico in 1971, 1973, 1974, and 1975 provided further opportunities to more thoroughly research the Native American Indians, their culture and lifestyle.

Therefore, the subjects of his works are that of small-town America and the cultural identity that it reflects. You will see in his work images of farm and ranch settings, rural landscapes, and every day, down-to-earth ordinary folks.

About Us
Susan Rose
My extensive travels throughout the United States have given me the opportunity to immerse myself in the American landscape. My continued interest in and enjoyment of being outdoors drives the imagery of most of my paintings. I can be found hiking, fishing, exploring and always studying the play of light and shadow on the land and how I might capture its illusiveness in my work. The act of
creating brings balance to my life and allows me to enjoy the abundance of nature. The idea of translating three dimensional work onto a two dimensional surface is where the magic happens for me. The largest paintings I make look abstract but are made from memories of stored images. Sometimes I allow the power of those images to speak for themselves through color and texture. Other times I am
more interested in putting recognizable images onto canvas and that is when I head outdoors and record my impressions of what I see. The result I am aiming for is an image that says something powerful, but that is painted in the most economical way. This is probably where I feel the happiest and most challenged as an artist. To eliminate superfluous brushstrokes, making every stroke count and

My passion to create art was sparked early in life by my father's hidden skill. "I was about 5 years old when I came across a sketchbook in our home. When I looked through it I was amazed at the beauty and feeling the pencil drawings evoked! Portraits and street scenes; and I was even more amazed to find out they were my dad's drawings! I knew that I wanted to do that also." I became fascinated with all kinds of art and I believed art would be my career, so I felt free to try a lot of other things. That pattern of "other things" became my life for a long time and it began to feel like a prison keeping me from my passion. I did not have the confidence to pursue art as a career. Marriage, family, jobs, hobbies became my life, and I felt stifled. It has been a difficult process but today I am in alignment with who I really am. I am now a full time, growing, changing, fire-breathing genius artist! I love the creation process; it's always new! I do not paint like any other artist that I have seen--my style is my own and it's evolving. My favorite thing is to paint from my imagination.
I have a bachelor degree in fine arts from the University of Northern Colorado with minor in Psychology. I have studies under painters Dave Wade, Michael Lynch, and Leon Parson.
