"Brian in ABQ" by Bea Garth, copyright 2012
I just completed this mixed media piece--watercolor with colored pencil.
It is from a drawing I did some years ago in New Mexico.

"Who Am I Really?" is an acrylic painting on paper by Bea Garth, copyright 2012

My empathic ability came through here. I often imagine I am the figures I paint. In this case I was playing with the mirror image in reverse so to speak.

"Remembering Tim," mixed media gouache and ink painting by Bea Garth, copyright 2012

I painted this in honor of my friend the painter Tim Cottengim.
