Betsy new work
These paintings , 24x24 on canvas, continuing my series of pond subjects were influenced by the Earthquake, Tsunami in Japan. We have family living there, thankfully they are safe. But an event like this connects us to the family of mankind, and I felt compelled to express that in my work. Each day I collected the devastating newspaper images incorporating them into my work along with bits of catalogs, papers and mementoes from various trips to Japan. These paintings are titled "Tears of the Buddha, Gardens of Sendai."

The sensitivity of these latest works is palatable.. from the floating, dream-like forms to nebulous tones to the fragility of the surface..one feels a sadness though also a strength beneath it all. These pieces are exquisite. retta
Betsy, I like the freeform shapes and the subdued tonal qualities of color.
Cool and wet and ready for spring
