I hope this finds you safe at home, surrounded by family and most importantly healthy. Stay strong everyone and we’ll get through this together.
STORY BEHIND THE IMAGE
Beth Bowen’s abstract paintings are ephemerally organic and meditative, yet active with gestural expression. Using water-based acrylic paints as her preferred medium, she is able to manipulate its fluidity and allow each painting to take shape with rich colors ranging from navy blue to turquoise and gold to emulate water and earth, like in this abstract painting of an aerial beach scene.
PERSONAL CONNECTION
I was introduced to Beth Bowen through her social media profile, where we’ve connected online, but have never had the chance to meet in person. Through our conversations, I discovered that she was an incredible artist who’s also gone through a divorce, lives in Palos Verdes, and is blazing a new path for her life. I have the utmost respect for how she’s taken her art to new heights, even showcasing one of her pieces in Paris at the Modern Art Masters in Complex de Louvre.
