VIEW ARTWORK

BRENDA BETTINSON has exhibited extensively in Europe and the US.  She has had one–person showings of her work in prestigious galleries and museums, such as in Maine, the Ogunquit Museum of American Art.  Her work hangs in numerous public and private collections.

Throughout her more than 70 year career Brenda’s art has constantly developed; stylistic changes reflect her intense analytical interest in visual perception and her understanding of the human form as the vehicle of painterly expression.

Her biography may be found in Who’s Who in American Art and North American Women Artists of the Twentieth Century; in 2017 BETTINSON was named inductee, World Lifetime Achievement, Marquis Who’s Who.
