“ART IS ANYTHING THAT SEDUCES THE EYE AND SOOTHES THE SOUL”
–unknown

Hi my name is Betty, I live and create in my home studio located in Southern NH along side my Architect husband of 27 years, and our three highly spoiled heal chewing Chihuahuas who you’d just love to boot across the street, Chachi, Molly, and their son Skip. They light up every second of my day!

As a self-taught traditional artist, I exhibited my artwork throughout New England for many years holding membership with several art guilds.The advent of the internet and a curious obsession with the computer in 1996, along with my camera and Adobe Photoshop software soon replaced my art supplies, allowing me to traverse a completely new dimension to my work – a new creative outlet without the messy clean up–occasionally, I still enjoy getting my hands messy.

My latest passion in creativity is photographer/ writer, being lost in the simplicity and beauty that surrounds me in the little gems of daily life and travels. A simple beauty that so many unfortunately take for granted each morning when we raise.

I shoot with a Canon EOS 30D Digital camera. Any post-processing is completed in Adobe Photoshop CS3 on a MacBook Pro laptop.
