  SOTTO ROCCE AQUA (Rocks Under Water) 36" x 36" Acrylics, Ink & Oil On Stretched Gallery Canvas Sotto Rocce Aqua was an intuitive abstract piece when I first laid down the underpainting with titanium white gesso. I had been thinking about blue with black for quite a while so for some reason this canvas became the Ginny pig.  Living so close the Jefferson River, The Madison River and the Gallatin River I have become very much in love with rocks under water. Sotto Rocce Aqua and Salamander both speak for my love of watching calming river water flow so peacefully over the rocks on the bottom of the rivers. Naturally, the design of this painting is quite abstract. However, I hope that you can see and feel the rhythm of the water over the odd shaped stones. I mean, after all...this is a Susie Rosso Wolf painting! -Susie Rosso Wolf

  HIDDEN HOUSE ON HWY 20 24" x 36" x 1" Gallery Wrapped Canvass  Hidden House on HWY 20 was a long time coming. Years ago in 1980 I left my family home in California to visit my brother and sister-in-law who lived in Blodgett, Oregon.  I purchased a Greyhound Bus ticket to travel from Los Angeles to Blodgett. The moment my sister-in-law picked me up in Corvallis and then drove me to Blodgett I just knew I was supposed to see Oregon. Back in those days I really loved travelling, I was enamored by the beauty of America. Oregon was a perfect example of spectacular beauty in the Pacific Northwest. My brother Mike and his family lived in a 101-year-old dairy farmhouse. The house was very large, and it had an enormous front porch. My family raised chickens, geese, hunted turkey and elk and they also had a huge conifer tree forest directly above and behind their home.  If you climbed up into the tree forest and sat down on the ground, you could see much of the Willamette Va...

 COSMIC DREAM Cosmic Dream came from my love of the astral world when I was very young. I spent many evenings as a child sitting on our porch steps watching the silver stars shining in the dark of night.  My grandmother believed in the astral world, and she believed in a person's aura. I know this to be true because she often would stop me as I entered our family kitchen, look right at me, then say to my sister or my father, "look at Susie's beautiful aura today!" I painted Cosmic Dream with its dark aura streaming by the blue moon with gold, silver, pale violet, lake green and white. This mixed medium original painting has been on display in retail and in gallery. The original painting is not for sale; however, beautiful prints are available on order. -Susie Rosso Wolf

 SALAMANDER 36" x 36" Acrylics, Metallics & Oil  Stretched Gallery Canvas Salamander has a secret! The title was given to me by my husband who noticed something in this painting that is most unusual. The way the story goes is that I was feeling this painting was finished so I asked my husband to give it a name, as I often do. He looked at the painting for several moments and out of the blue he said "SALAMANDER!" I looked at him as if he was crazy! Salamander? Why Salamander? All of a sudden, he pointed to a shape in the painting that totally made sense. Salamander abstractly represents stones under the waters of our many rivers here in Montana. So, while my husband was looking at the painting, attempting to name it, he noticed a white shape over one of the stones! The white shape looks exactly like a salamander sunbathing on the rock. Salamander has been in retail and in gallery. Currently, Salamander is for sale; available for gallery, retail, restaurant instal...

 THE ITALIAN 12" x 24" Acrylics and Metallics On Stretched Canvas. The Italian was inspired by my sister, Sharifah, who has a love for the color gold. As usual, I didn't have a composition in mind in the beginning of the underpainting, therefore I simply scraped multiple paint colors onto my pallet. I began to think of Italy and their love for all things gold, then suddenly the composition came alive. Thinking of Sharifah inspired the color scheme of this 12" x 24" acrylic abstract piece. Sharifah sparked the memories of our mother's beautiful gold sofa and chair in our living room. And then I began to add the red of our mother's beautiful bowl that held our gorgeous camellia flowers that floated inside the bowl. Next, I mentally walked into our kitchen adding many colors that popped into my mind from years gone by; green, orange, copper, blue, and more.  The Italian has been sold; however, prints are absolutely available. You can leave a comment here an...

 FIELDS IN MOTION 36" x 36" Acrylics and oil on stretched canvas Completed 9-18-2025 In Montana, everywhere I look I am blessed to see the most beautiful fields of grass in the world. It's true. We are known around the world for our grasses and our wheat. In fact, the town/area that I live in is called Wheat Montana. The fields are amazing. If you spend a few moments looking at them, you instantly feel a connection to nature, to the earth, to Montana, and to God. When you take a few minutes to watch the clouds above the grassy hills you will drown in the beauty of our enormous "Big Sky." If you don't have a way to visit our amazing grasses and fields of beauty, prints of Fields In Motion are absolutely available and, the original 36" x 36" painting is also available for purchase or exhibition. -Susie Rosso Wolf 

Canyon Drive 16" x 16" Acrylics on stretched gallery canvas. Completed 2022   Intuitively speaking, when I began this painting with black edges, I knew right then that this painting would be very colorful. No composition here, just letting myself go with feeling and memories. I do this quite often with my abstracts, just let it all go and follow the road to authenticity.  Canyon Drive earned its name because I realized how much the final product reminds me of the days when I would jump in my car, turn right at Sunset Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway. All the way up Sunset Boulevard I would turn up the tunes, sing along with the radio while my hair would blow out the window. Eventually, Hollywood Boulevard appeared along with the tourist's window shopping and the impatient locals yelling out of their car windows at the visitors from many different countries who were hoping to see the movie stars on the strand. Canyon Drive means a lot to me. It digs up so many beautiful...
