betty_in_goldframe2I grew up in a creative, inventive family that instilled a “can do” kind of outlook.

With a background in fine arts and apprentice to journeyman status in the display department of Nordstrom’s, I learned color and grew my appreciation of good design and the how to’s of decorative finishes.

While a senior in high school, I competed with young women all over the U.S. who also represented their school to a fashion board and Seventeen Magazine.  I was awarded a trip to N.Y.C. by Seventeen Magazine along with 7 other young women.  This was the beginning of my great interest in travel, learning and new experiences.  To this end, I have traveled extensively in North America and Europe, living in multiple cities on both U.S. coasts and Hawaii.  Each location has broadened my knowledge of architecture, regional design and art.

I am proud to be among a handful of women painting contractors.  I love the transformative qualities of color and paint.  Painting fits me.  It is cerebral, creative and active.
