Bettie Curry

The Harvest
Oil

Bettie Curry’s painting, “The Harvest” draws on the energy and expressionist lineage vision of the maverick artist Chaime Soutine. Her tactile combination of mark and pace in her oil still life is one of those subjective orchestrations of color, rhythm, and gesture where everything fits together by the sheer, subjective will of the artist, which is difficult to achieve.
