Before becoming a painter, Kathy Beynette wrote fiction and poetry, to which she credits her narrative approach to painting. Her work is often regarded as whimsical and fun. Dr. Elisabeth Kessler from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences wrote, “Kathy Beynette’s work comes with an enormous depth of human feeling attached . Fun and caring without sentimentality. Straight to the heart pieces.”

Gentilissima Kathy,
ho comprato (insieme a Sonia ed ai piccoli Francesco e Giulia) “Skilly Bunny” in Stoccolma due settimane fa. Spero ti ricordi della mia “teatrale delusione” per l’avvenuta vendita della “Zebra”.
E’ stato un vero piacere conoscere te e Maria. Ti ringrazio ancora per la squisita simpatia e la grande disponibilità manifestatami.
Ti invito a casa mia in Ariccia (Roma) per farti conoscere i posti più belli della capitale e della regione.
Ho inviato lo stesso invito a Maria che mi ha già scritto promettendomi una visita appena possibile.
Attendo tue notizie.
Carmine Montemurro
PS: Bunny dice di trovarsi bene in Italia: fa meno freddo che a Stoccolma … smile please…
Hello:
We ran across your website and thought you might be interested in our upcoming Project. We are Art in Hand™, an arts publisher looking to bring our City Project Decks of cards to the city of Washington, DC. We are seeking 54 artists who are currently living and working in the Washington, DC area to participate in our next City Project Deck.
The Washington, DC Project will be a deck of fully functional playing cards where each individual card in the deck (plus 2 jokers) is rendered in the typical style of the contributing artist. The project will create widespread exposure for participating artists while producing a unique, entertaining, functional and green product for the city of Washington, DC.
We are seeking artists of 2-dimensional art in any style or medium and from as many different neighborhoods and districts within Washington, DC area as possible.
Accepted artists will be assigned one card from the deck and asked to produce an original piece of work that clearly represents their designated card, that represents some aspect (be it overt or subtle) of Washington, DC and that is created in their own unique style.
There will be no fee for participation but accepted artists will be asked to sign a letter of commitment, a confidentiality agreement and a ‘right to reproduce’ agreement as well as submit a high res TIFF of the image in exchange for a one-time royalty payment in product. Artists are free to keep their original image.
Interested artists should submit an email before November 19th, 2010 to info@artinhandcards.com, include a short bio and a link to a website where their work can be easily viewed or 2-3 sample image files representative of their work. Please include the title: Washington, DC Project Artist in the subject line of your email.
If you are accepted to the project, we will contact you after November 22nd, 2010 and send you an information package that should answer all your questions.
For more information or to view other City Projects, please visit our website, http://www.artinhandcards.com.
Thanks for considering being part of this very fun and unique project.
Kathy,
The girls arrived yesterday in great shape. The cats were happy to be home.
I can hardly wait to see the calender.
