From solo exhibitions to covers of albums and magazines her work has appeared in Town and Country, Playboy, Vogue, Science Digest, New York Times, Horchow, Money Magazine and many others.  

This retrospective will showcase Sue’s brilliant illustration work throughout the stages of her career. This will be the only opportunity to view the journey of her early sketch works to her two large scale finely detailed paintings from the 90’s to her now recent whimsical small works.  

Sue’s career started early after earning her college degree in Denton, Texas. Soon after graduating Llewellyn landed an advertising illustration job with Neiman Marcus. Not only did Sue’s career start to take off but it was here that Sue found her unique and groundbreaking style.

She has held exhibitions in 11 New York City galleries as well as galleries in California, Texas, and New Mexico.
