I'm a passionate artist dedicated to  the practice of creativity in my day to day life. I teach others how to express themselves through art, gratitude, and the act of slowing down. With a blend of creativity, attention to detail, and a touch of whimsy, I love to look closely at small details, transforming them into meaningful stories and emotions. Join me in this creative work as we explore the beauty of nature and celebrate life's precious moments, one exquisite heartbeat at a time.

Hi, I'm Bethany

These are a few of my favorite things

Her generous demos and explanations of techniques, color harmony, composition and gentle touches with those wonderful pastels, has been stellar. One of the very best Pastelists out there. And I'm so glad I discovered her some years ago!
