Viewing the Betsy Walton portfolio is like accepting an invitation into the world of complex and varied art influences blending to create a unique style of its own.
The Betsy Walton portfolio showcases the impressive and sometimes divergent work of the 33-year-old Portland resident (and Kansas transplant). Many paintings in the Betsy Walton portfolio clearly display the influences of contemporary art, geometric abstract work and American folk art.
"Many of my paintings and drawings explore the tension and balance between the mysterious nature of our existence and the objects and environments we find in everyday life," said Betsy Watson, "We can experience the sublime in the same room where we fold the laundry, and perhaps at the same time."
Betsy Walton's work will be featured next at the Together Gallery in Portland, Oregon in September 2011.
