Susan Christie has been involved in the art world for over 50 years. She is originally from Minneapolis. Following her BA degree from the University of Minneapolis in anthropology, she studied Asian Ink Painting with a Japanese Master Painter at Minnihon in Minneapolis for 10 years. She then studied in 1984 at a famous art academy in China. In Christie’s varied art career, she has originated two galleries in Minneapolis, conducted individual workshops, and written articles and exhibition text. Lately, her primary interest has been in the world of fiber art. In 2014, she was the lead curator for an exhibition of thirty-six fiber artists at RioBravoFineArt® Gallery. This was followed by the Las Cruces Museum of Art exhibition Transforming Space - Transforming Fiber in 2016 and 2017. Currently Christie is the Editor/Publisher of the New Mexico Fiber Arts Directory (NMFAD) and the new Mountain West Fiber Arts Directory. She will be curating an exhibition in 2022 at the RioBravoFineArt® Gallery showcasing Minna White/Lana Dura, Taos New Mexico. Christie has work in the New Mexico State Capitol Building as part of the Capitol Art Collection.

Throughout the years I have made observations and extensive studies about
things which repeatedly capture my attention and provide inspiration.
‘Nature!' - Trees, Water, Frost, Rain, Light, Wind and Rock in their
infinite variety of forms and manifestations whether great or small,
at times visible,  often hidden, silent or audible, underground or
disguised, but always in transition. Things we see inpart or not at
all which ​exert tremendous far reaching effects on our planet.
