art of bethWhimsical, quixotic, untraditional watercolours; primarily speaking of love & beauty. |
| Our lives are inundated with influences on how we should talk, think, act and spend our money. It is so easy to forget who we are as individuals, those unnamed feelings that were once so special to us... not any particular feelings, just contentment with who and what we are – happy in our surroundings and aware of all the little natural occurrences that put the ‘magic’ into our lives. I guess when I paint I am doing two things... one is being selfish and trying to exist in that magic world, and the other is conveying that magic into something tangible. That sense of magic gives birth to a concept, and then I let the nature of the painting process run the show. I stick to watercolour, because the organic unpredictability of watercolour gives individual life and vitality to each piece. I use pen to compliment the watercolour with detail – to try to create a balance similar to that which exists in nature.;beth_alt@yahoo.ca;1-250-920-9989;www.bethdunlop.com; |
