Slideshow of my art

Art-By-Betty-Refour

It is time to feature another great artist and WWAO friend, Betty Refour.




I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. My favorite color as a child was yellow orange. It had to be on everything I drew. I wanted to be a Fashion Designer. Coco Chanel was my idol. I loved the classic style to her designs. I went to design school and after I finished when I couldn't get a job as a Head Designer :), I pursued other interests. Some 15 years later after a back injury I started painting as a form of therapy. In the years since attending school I continued to draw, but I had never painted. When a friend asked me to design a card for her baby shower I got the idea to put my artwork on cards.
I lost my grandmother to Breast Cancer, my mother to Myeloma and my sister Rose has Autism so I am always looking for ways to advocate for these causes.

Rose and I are both primarily self taught and our work can be found in collections around the world. Rose is mostly non verbal and will often use art to express herself.
