About
the Artist
I met Beck in Nepal eight years ago. She was listening to Ben Harper
and putting on a blue face mask. Becky has a love of colour and an
eye for detail. She picked out the fluro greens on our walks and noticed
the twig the little girl wore as a nose ring. For Becky, there is truth
in the saying "One mans
trash is another mans treasure" for she has an eye for picking
out gems. Her love of second hand floral print bed sheets is testament
to that. In things which may otherwise seem ordinary, Becky sees beauty.
I think she paints in a similar way. Last year we went to Croatia and
Becky wanted to buy a house on the idyllic island on Hvar. But she's
still travelling and hasnt settled down yet. I wonder if it's the travelling
that keeps her inspired. I havent asked. Anyway, all Becky got from
Hvar is a touristy t-shirt. Thing is, it's very cool. She picks out
gems.
