New Artist at Black Arrow: Suzy Almblade Townsend
We’re excited to welcome Arizona watercolor artist Suzy Almblade Townsend to Black Arrow.
Suzy’s work captures the quiet beauty of the Southwest — glowing desert rock formations, snowy forest paths, winter creeks, and the soft light that makes Arizona feel so alive.
What makes these pieces especially unique?
They are watercolors displayed without glass.
Suzy has spent years perfecting a process where each painting is mounted to board, sealed against water damage, and protected from UV exposure — allowing the artwork to be seen clearly, without glare or the weight of glass.
As Suzy describes watercolor:
“It’s like a cat, you can coax it but you can’t control it. The water is your partner in the painting process.”
Her pieces are now available at Black Arrow Native American Jewelry & Art in downtown Prescott.
Stop in and see them in person — the photos are beautiful, but the texture, light, and softness of these watercolors are even better up close.
