Several Western art shows and sales have been canceled, but works are still available via websites.
Managing Editor Susan Morrison grew up in South Texas. Although no one else in her family was bitten by the horse bug, she was fortunate enough to be able to ride with friends, and was able to buy her first horse—a 2-year-old Appaloosa mare—while in high school. After studying animal health technology at Sul Ross State University for a year, she transferred to Texas A&I University (now Texas A&M University at Kingsville) and worked for the Quarter Horse division at the legendary King Ranch for two years.
Ultimately graduating from Texas Woman’s University with a journalism degree, she spent the first 10 years of her career in the newspaper industry, and then worked in media relations for several years. She joined Cowboy Publishing Group’s Quarter Horse News in 2005, and moved to Western Horseman in 2010.
Susan has shown cutting horses since the mid-1990s. In 2017 she won the American Paint Horse Association world championship in amateur cutting on her mare, Ima Pinta Playgirl. She also has a Paint gelding that she enjoys riding and taking him to occasional ranch sortings. She is involved with several dog rescue groups, fostering and transporting animals in need, and has several dogs of her own.
