The Art Family was first created for a library art workshop to introduce young children to basic lines and colours using fun examples and to promote creativity. The six family members each represent a different style of line, Smooth, Wobbly, Dash, Spiky, Curly and Dot. Spiky likes to paint big dinosaurs and small hedgehogs. They each have their own favourite things to create. Introducing the magic primary colours, clear illustrations show how purple, green and orange can be made. The Art Family collaborate to create a series of paintings, ranging from the seaside to butterflies, mountains and woolly jumpers. Once the lines and colours have been mastered, there are suggested ideas to create Art Family Pets and Houses along with a range of activities. Created for children of 5 - 7 yrs. with adult guidance, it is also suitable for 7 - 9 yrs. to promote creative art ideas. An endless range of new Art Family members can be created with one specific style or by mixing different lines. The Art Family are full of fun and easy for children to relate to.

Trusler, Sue: - After 37 years in finance, Sue retired and discovered the joy of painting, which has now become her greatest passion. Growing up in the Victorian seaside town of Penarth, Sue married, had two children and now lives in Cardiff. Having bought a small narrowboat, fate played a wild card. Traditional canal art was needed to bring back the boats original character. With no previous art skills, Sue took up the challenge. Successfully painting the boat, she progressed to watercolour art, sketching, botanical art and using inks.Sharing her passion, enthusiasm and knowledge, in November 2021 Sue published "Time To Start Your Art" to encourage others to start painting. She was invited to talk about her art journey which has included exhibitions, competitions, magazine articles and participation in a Digital Art Exhibition in Times Square, NYC which has given great encouragement to others.When asked to run a children's Art Workshop, in the library she frequented as a child, Sue created The Art Family characters. The children had great fun interacting with Smooth, Wobbly, Dash, Spiky, Curly and Dot. Based on the success of the event, Sue decided to write a book, designed to inspire young children to be creative through art.
