Betty Jean Billups - Fine Artist

Sandpoint, ID - United States

 

'Capturing the inner feeling, a moment so quickly passing, a moment that is beyond words, almost beyond thought. the nuances that dance between a mountain and the sky that embraces her, creating a symphony that the eyes perceive, but only the soul can remember.

This celebration of light upon the physical and ethereal worlds, that creates a love affair, not only between these two worlds, but also for the viewer. It is this special moment in time that excites me, that drives me to even risk failure, if I but have the chance to capture only a fraction of what I see, of what I feel, of what I know, from this wonderful experience we call Life!' Betty Jean Billups

The following was written by Tom Battles, relating to a museum exhibition of Billups work in 2001:
The power and sweep of this unique style of Betty Jean Billups is comparable with the leading painters of our century and before.

The strength of her painting strokes combine masterfully with her extraordinary command of the artist's color palette. Bold and yet thoughtful use of composition yields a freshness and depth to these works that is seldom seen in many of today's works of art.

A dynamic and electrically charged must see exhibit combining a dazzling explosion of artistic energy and sparkling creativity.”
Tom Battles, referring to Clymer and Hockaday Museum Exhibitions

MAJOR ART EVENTS
In the summer of 1977, Elizabeth Jean Billups (AKA Betty) had her first one artist museum show at the Montana Historical Society in Helena. This exhibit was the direct results of doing research for a U.S. Army commission that she received, to create a painting of Sacajawea. And this commission came about because the Army had seen a painting Billups had in the U.S. Air Force Art Collection.
The painting was called 'The Nightingale', & depicted the C-9, a medical plane.
