“contemporary, whimsical, sophisticated, unique, recognizable, inspiring and innovative....the art of paula best.”
There has never been a time in my life that i wasn’t drawing....my work has been in numerous shows, galleries and collections...for the past 16 years i have been designing for my art rubber stamp company. the rubber stamp business takes me around the country, selling at rubber stamp conventions. i also have a line of sterling silver jewelry that i have designed.
Now, I have added the mixed media canvasses to my “line up”. i combine acrylic paint, fabric, paper, beading, rubberstamping and hand lettering...combining the unusual to spark a thought provoking piece. i love getting back to the “art show/gallery” scene....where i began my artistic journey.
a big fan of public art, i participated in the “trail of the painted ponies in santa fe , NM . this led me to painting an enormous heart for the hearts in san francisco project. my heart “be inspired” resides in the lobby of an office building in the financial district of san francisco.
experimenting constantly with new ideas for wearable art, i enjoy teaching what i come up with to other creative souls....
born in berkeley , CA , i now live in “the land of enchantment” new mexico.
