Beth Sotherden

Beth enjoys working in and experimenting with a variety of mediums, materials and processes. Her work is best described as intuitive painting, where the expression “becomes a dance and conversation between myself and the painting.” She says, “since I was young, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t creating something — drawing, painting, crafting, gardening and poetry projects.”

 

Beth pursued an art degree from Syracuse University and found her artistic voice and vision in a class called Materials and Techniques, where she learned to paint in layers, experiment with textures, and allow the painting to reveal itself.  A member of several arts organizations and exhibits regularly in group shows as well as some solo exhibitions.
