From Bettina Rusher

For me painting is all about the journey. I often begin with loose, colorful, sometimes chaotic layers, embracing spontaneity. Through a slow process of adding, subtracting, and refining, a painting gradually moves toward balance. I try to remain open to the so-called "mistakes" along the way-sometimes they turn into the most interesting parts of the piece. I love building subtle tension through push and pull, and exploring the soft, blurred edges where colors overlap, and earlier marks linger just beneath the surface. Brushwork and mark-making are important to me, too-I experiment with a variety of tools to create mood, movement, and a sense of energy. Some paintings endure trials and setbacks, passing through cycles of building up, tearing down, carving back into the paint, and rebuilding again before finally reaching a feeling of resolve. Intellectually, I strive for raw honesty. If my work begins looking too precious, I change those aspects of the work.

Bettina's art can be found in private and public collections in the Southeastern US, California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Montana, and Germany. In Georgia, she is represented by Nina Cahill Art and IDEA Gallery in Atlanta.

About Julia
North Carolina artist Julia Chandler Lawing synchronizes color and brushstroke to capture the essence of a moment and evoke emotion. Her oil paintings have been called extravagantly beautiful, spiritual and inspiring.

Born in Atlanta, Julia moved to St. Simons Island, Georgia, at age 12. The experience of growing up in the Golden Isles instilled a deep appreciation for nature, light, and the wetland landscape.

Julia earned a BA in Journalism/Advertising at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill ('90), with a minor in drawing and art history. While employed at Savannah College of Art and Design, and later the Charlotte Observer, she continued her creative exploration through night classes in various mediums including stained glass, woodworking, ceramics and pastels. While her four daughters were small, she taught elementary art classes and docented at the Cabarrus County Arts Council. Soon afterwards, Julia began oil painting and knew she had found her calling.

Julia's work is featured in private collections across the US and Canada, and corporate collections including multiple Towne Bank branches and Georgia State University's College of Law. Her paintings have appeared as billboards, window clings, and sheet metal.
