Working with vibrant colors and inspired by many of the Abstract Expressionists, Betsy Cole is a painter whose greatest influence comes from Bali, with its warmth and generosity, and where art is conceived as a dance that magically unveils the emotions along life's journey. Art heals, and it does so by bringing the inside out. It’s certainly no great insight to say that life isn’t always easy — but art can bring light and joy and color to the darkness, the pain, the fear. As I began to untangle my life and view it as a journey, I allowed my love of bright colors to be expressed and to acquire a new healing purpose.
