Artist
Betty Merken 206-328-0177
Betty Merken Studios
The nature of painting drives the meaning of my work. The interplay between the physical, sensual activity of painting and the necessary intellectual and formal decisions which present themselves creates an ongoing dialogue within each work and among the works themselves.  In my daily studio practice I attempt to strike a balance between painterly guts and the pared down elegance of formalism. The inherent tension between these two elements is full of mystery and metaphor, and pushes me forward, challenging me to create work which has a sense of inevitability about it and which conveys a sense of oneness with the viewer.
