"Capturing the Essence of the Moment..."

“I am inspired by color, light and the energy that makes things work. I enjoy creating work that ‘Captures the Essence of the Moment’ and invites the viewer to join in this celebration.  As I create, I draw upon my experiences and inspiration from nature and sport. Whether using brush, palette knife or drawing with pen, I combine the use of gestural marks, free-flowing movement and exuberant colors to bring my subjects and abstracts to life.”

THE ARTIST'S LIFE
B'Beth's inspirations on Instagram.

Many years ago, my mother introduced me to the fine Italian handmade laces of Emilia Burano. In a full circle moment during one of my travels, I found myself, purely by happy accident, venturing into a small lace shop on Burano Island, Italy. Much to my surprise, it was the very lace my mother introduced me to so many years prior- Emilia Burano! This family-run business is on it's fourth generation and has been in business since the 1800's. Experiencing lace tying in person was exquisite, and a day I will never forget! Such beauty, such talent, such expertise! I’m grateful for my friendship with the members of this family, and am looking forward to seeing them very soon! . . . . #italian #lace #italy #venice #travels #traveller #travelingartist #bbethweldonpaintings #familyowned #emeliaburano @#travelgram #traveling #travelholic #travelingram #traveldiary #traveldiaries #travellife #travelblog #travelitaly
One of the highlights of my career has been being a featured artist at the Florence Biennale in Florence, Italy. The Biennale was conceived as summoning of artists from around the world called to participate to the International contemporary art exhibition in Florence beginning in 1997. Here, my triptych “Awakening” can be seen to the left of the visitor’s entrance. What an honor, and a memory I will never forget! . . . . #florence #italy #biennale #florencebiennale #bbethweldonpaintings #paintings #modernart #abstractart #contemporaryart #artwork #paintmixing #artexhibition #artexhibit #artcollector #artdealer #fineart #artofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #oil #oilpaint #arte #artistic #artcollective #instaart #canvas
