This little character was getting 3 sheets to the wind at the bar one night. I happened to be sitting with friends at a table and heard this woman's accent, she was a fellow Aussie.(Very broad accent, and even I had a time making her words out) She was as wide as she was tall, hence the 4' x 4' title. Sue (her name) was a barrel of laughs, we found her captivating with her humor. My American pals could not get over the tales she told. Sue never did know I sketched her though. As she got up to leave, the ship was swaying a little, Sue toddled from side to side trying to get into the rhythm of our vessel (have you got a mental picture on this?) as she made her way to her dining room, hope she got there.Texas artist Rae Andrews, paintings in all media and genre. She is an Australian ex-pat who moved to Maui in the early 1990's where she owned two art galleries .. she now resides in Texas where she conducts workshops both in the USA, Australia and Europe.
