Hi! My name is Beth; and I’m a self-taught, nature-inspired watercolor artist who first picked up a paint brush when I was 55. I taught myself to paint by watching YouTube videos and lots of practice and discovered that I love painting nature subjects as realistically as I can. In the summer of 2021, I created MamaDuck Art. I believe feeling connected to nature is essential for peace and calm in a busy and sometimes chaotic world, so my mission is to create art that gently grounds you; reminds you of the beauty and wonder of this earth we call home; and connects you to the people, memories, faith, and/or nature you love. I hope you will bring a little nature inside and find connection and a little peace.
Art hasn’t been a part of my life until recently. Music was my creative outlet for most of my life, but a few years ago, when I was in my mid-50s, I happened upon watercolors and was hooked. I’m a logic-driven thinker who discovered her artistic creative side a little later in life. But as it’s often said, it’s never too late to learn something new and find a new passion. And so I encourage you - no matter what life phase you’re in - always keep learning. You just never know what you might discover and how it might change your life.
