SPLISH SPLASH

 

 

This was born from a wonderful application of a special mixture of paint and techniques to move it around in such a way that it creates beauty. Adding more color and splashes and voila!

Some say they see a pink panther while others see something else.

I definitely see prehistorical characters at the playground. Lemons, avocados or you call it what you may! I love this beauty and hope you do too! EnJOY!

Mexican Morning Garden

I have always loved the colors of other countries! The boldness in their dress and dishes as well as their homes. Not having actually been there one can only imitate what has been seen in photos!

This was a fun journey as if I was painting fringes on garments or decorating walls. How awesome would that be to paint a mural in Columbia, Costa Rica, or Mexico? WOW!

For now, this will have to do! hahah

PANSY PARTY

SOLD

 IT'S A PANSY PARTY!

This! Do you love pansies? I sure do! What I love about them is that they each appear to have little faces. Not only that but they have such happy faces! Combining this with dragonflies and happy words just made my heart soar.

Can you imagine seeing this lovely painting in your home? Who would not just melt every time they walk by it? Dance, sing, play, dream, and of course, the "love notes" are all so happy.

This was so fun and I hope you enjoy it too!

                                                             AVOIDANCE

Did you ever avoid yourself? I mean like avoid your own gifts, talents, and abilities? As if, maybe of you stepped into them a bomb would go off or something worse like you might keel over?

I would guess that you have! Well, this is because I have seen it. People being afraid of themselves, their own shadow. It stems from "not good enough" even though that story is all made up like Winnie the Pooh.

How else do I know?

Because I have been doing it! Uggha

Yes, I have been dabbling in abstract, never having done it before and frankly, I thought it was those who did not know how to create real art. Silly me, art is art and abstract takes more than one would think as they look at it.

My avoidance?

Avoiding my style, the beautiful art I used to create! Now, do NOT get me wrong. Art s like life and EVERY part of the journey is the journey. In art, there is no wrong or right way. However, when we think for a little bit that we somehow LOST it, that gift we had, we might avoid going there.

Yep, you guessed it! This is what I was doing. Worse yet, I did a few times, compare my art to another. That is a losing game at the paint store door.

MY MOTTO NOW...? 

AVOID NO MORE! STEP INTO IT ALL!

HOORAY!

p.s. I am AVOIDING THIS TREE! It scares me lol Actually I began this and haven't got back there yet!

                   IT'S ALL ABOUT MY MAMA

                                             

If any of you have been around me for like 5 minutes..hahaha..you KNOW my Mama is my heart! Many years ago I painted a mural (border) in her dining room! When I was visiting her for a couple weeks in the summer, while I did my art shows, I decided to paint her a floorcloth! 

As it has been with all the floorcloths I have painted, to the best of my knowledge, no one ever put them on the floor. Mom left it rolled up in the closet for safekeeping. You guessed it; "That is just too pretty to walk on." Okay, you can do it your way.

Well, when she died my family asked if I wanted it and of course I said YES! Yes, it is on the floor here.

This is indicative of the work I did back then and still do, although I have taken a fancy to abstract (these few weeks) and am excited to create some "long-form" art.

Yes, I create commissioned art! I love creating these floorcloths and if this is what you fancy, just ask! I have created so many with so many themes so it is your pick! Ask me your topic/choice/theme and we can discuss it.

You can see some here (click the cloth)

 Love Lives here!

Ah, hearts have always been my love and I see them everywhere. When I paint them it is even better. You see, when love lives here, deep inside my own heart, it is easy to see love everywhere. Do hearts magically appear in front of me? No. 

Because I am aware and alert to where hearts are: in nature, in art, and life in general, then I see them. Because I am a collector of hearts, in people and in life, they show up! People send me hearts, buy hearts for me, and otherwise share their hearts with me.

This is why I paint them too! It adds to the love in the world as well as in my own heart. I love my "heartpourings" whether in word or artwork.

I hope you do too!

Much Love,

Artist, Bette
