Thank you for stopping by! In this video, I'm creating on a 36x36" canvas. While creating, I talk about my imposter syndrome and what I did to overcome it.
My work is inspired by my love for fields of flowers. You'll see me create it from start to finish. There's no music, however, you'll hear me talk through a lot of my process and discuss products/tools that I'm using.

Hello and welcome! I'm Betty Franks and I create my vision of abstract fields of flowers using acrylic paints and pencils (and other mark-making tools). I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and travel a couple of times a year to Preko, Croatia (where my parents live). I started painting in 2012 and focused on abstract art in the summer of 2015. Follow all my art adventures on Instagram or Facebook (links below).

You could not do such wonderful art if you were not an artist. Not only are you an artist but you are an INSPIRATIONAL ARTIST and also you are a THERAPEUTIC ARTIST as your videos are so comforting and lovely to listen to. Perhaps you are a MEGA-ARTIST: you get people started on their own paintings, and others can just enjoy watching you create.

Wonderful discussion on imposter syndrome! I've been doing art my whole life; now 58 and finished with Corporate America a few years ago. I hope one day I will feel confident enough to call myself an artist; a struggle that is ongoing. Thank you for your perspective. I really needed to hear that. LOVE YOUR ART!!!

Mary Ellen, be kind to yourself and keep on creating. As you build up confidence, you will be able to call yourself an artist easily.

@valeriepurcell5229 Год назад

Such an important topic! I was born an artist. I didnt realize I was self taught until my fifties. It was also that period where some fellow artists I used to have to create with taught me to say that “I am an artist!” I miss my tribe so much (all have moved away and Im alone now). That self doubt comes in all the time since I dont get to sell my art for a living. Thank you for addressing this.

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

You had a wonderful tribe, Valerie! You will find another one. Keep on putting messages out into the universe. It will come to be. Sending you big hugs!

@artistcarolyngrace1711 Год назад

I’m part of your tribe Val!! Was born an artist had people tell me to say “ I am an artist!” Comes so naturally to me it’s like second nature to me… ive had quite a few people pop up out of the woodwork lately saying “ I still have your beautiful piece!” Still hangs in my bedroom etc! It’s a joy to hear after so many years from lots of folks I don’t see anymore just a blessing! It keeps me painting😀👍🌈

@lisavento7474 Год назад

love this and am going to go through it again. As an artist, i came from advertising / graphic design/art direction so in PLEASING OTHERS for 5 decades it's extremely painstaking to find out WHO i am and WHAT i have to SAY now in doing art for my own enjoyment. Would NEVER have thought it was this hard, no matter how "good" many say you are, you still have to find yourself.

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

I hear ya, Lisa! It's hard when you go from working for others and creating what THEY want to creating what YOU want. Don't give up on yourself. Keep on playing, experimenting, and having fun. It will all come together for you!

So true about imposter syndrome. It took me years to say out loud that I am an artist! Probably not until I was around 40 yrs old. It's a daily struggle to keep believing in yourself and own it....and takes even more courage to show that publicly! Thanks for sharing your light!

Hi Betty, Love this video. I am always sheepish about saying I am an artist because I don't share much of my art with people and I have never sold anything. I just don't think most people "get" my art and I am still, after 6-7 years of painting, still trying to find my style. It's a journey not a destination.

EVERY artist should study color theory because you can mix MUD very easily. Cadmium red for instance won't get you purples as it already has yellow in it, warm and cool colors are different in mixing. Great resource; BOOK: "Blue and Yellow Don't Make Green: How to Mix the Color You Really Want- Every Time" by Michael Wilcox

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

You're the best, Lisa! I just ordered the book. I love mixing colors, but I would love to learn more about the best way to mix colors that I want. THANK YOU so much for sharing this with me!!

@lisavento7474 Год назад

@@BettyFranksArt it's a HUGE asset! I used to sell prepress films and printing after 40 years in advertising and artists are amazed how little of their colors they can get through the 4-color printing process so understanding what turns to MUD and WHY is huge, understanding what happens when you add milk to a glass of water helps when you want to lighten a color WITHOUT WHITE, Things like toning down a color with a little of it's complimentary color...science things like how SHADOWS are formulated by more of the color, complimentary color and blue is such a "GOD thing". Like anatomy, It's the crucial tool to make good art no matter how boring it is. One day we will be in heaven and realize that our human eye could not see ALL THE SPECTRUMS of colors there in light while here on earth. MORE COLORS!

My first time watching you paint. I just heard of you from a student of your classes. I love your joyful pallet and method. Also I totally agree with the comparason game we play on ourselves. I tell my tribe constantly not to compare their work with others. Only compare with your previous work and don't expect to see your first works in a museum. When you have worn out some brushes then you have done some work to compare with your past. So don't beat yourself up. Thank you for sharing the love of what you do!

I'm only half way through listening and watching and as always your conversation reveals what a warm and caring person you are which is so cheering. I can't really explain how positive and helpful it is having you create right in front of me. It's so inspirational watching your painting develop. So, I'm still waiting to hear about your explanation on the 'imposter syndrome' topic. I only recently found this syndrome on you tube, up till then I didn't know I had this! What I mean is I didn't know there was a name for my insecurity and constant doubting. Now I've heard you everything you say is so very helpful.Thank you so much for bringing the subject up and continuing to be encouraging in every way. It's making me push myself when I lack confidence and believe much more in myself. ❤

I having been painting nearly everyday or so since the start of COVID. I sold a few things to friends and friends of friends. Everyone who sees my work is very enthusiastic-at least to my face. The inventory is building up and I don't have space in my small home to store too many 24x36 canvases. I decided to go for it. I had a business card with part of one of my paintings on one side and the word "Artist" under my name. I also paid someone to do a website. I notice a big change in attitude when I hand people the card. They seem to regard this as a legitimate business now. All those classes in college finally mean something. Thanks, Betty for your inspiration.

@simplyme135 Год назад

I stored everything which does not fit the space on the walls under the bed. I started with 24by36 and moved to 16X20. In my opinion, easier to store and sell, at least till I will get rich and famous.

You were saying that sometimes you like the calming effect that neutrals impart to your painting - I so agree! For me, using too many bright colors is confusing to my eye, and I find that neutrals used in the right places add a lot of perspective, especially near the top, where usually you want things to look further away. Although it's abstract and perspective is perhaps less important, my eye is trained to recognize distance and wants it to be there anyway. My eyes like to travel INTO a painting, as well as around it. Currently learning just how to go about that, waiting for that "lightbulb!" moment of discovery....

I always shied away from abstract art but I’ve recently realised it’s a wonderful thing to look at and a joy to try so I’ve turned my thinking around. I’ve just enrolled in your accordion art course…I’m excited to be embracing something new😊

Wonderful! I felt the same way many years ago, Theresa. It's like all of a sudden I was loving abstract art. I realized that before that I wasn't seeing abstract art that spoke to my heart. I think you're going to love the course! Thank so much for signing up!

I'm so glad! Welcome to my channel and artwork, Carla! Happy to have you here!

Your videos are inspirational for someone who has always done very tight work (Zentangle teacher!) who is yearning to loosen up! I just ordered your bundle because those colors make my heart sing 🎶 ❤

@BettyFranksArt 4 месяца назад

Yay! Glad to hear that the videos are helping you loosen up! Love Zentagles! So fun!

So enjoyed this! I (personally) love the longer Vlogs and YT Demos. I enjoyed hearing about Imposter Syndrome, very helpful. Just got my 'Betty's Bundle" Haven't used them yet, but will likely break them open today! Thanks so much

Thank you for sharing that feedback with me, Kathy. I really appreciate it! And, I hope you got a chance to break into the paints. I think you're going to love them!

I dont clean my brushes sometimes and love the texture I get from the dried paint the next time I use them.

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

I love that!! I especially love that you're not afraid to ruin a brush for the sake to trying something different.

Thanks, Amanda! Yes, so important to create many pieces and then see the progress you made!

Hey Betty, just discovered you and subscribed. Great sharing on this video, painting is brilliant. I've got a corporate America background, as well, and fully understand that "too much going on in your head" feeling when a major event looms large, like a big trip or finishing a class semester with an exhibition. Under paintings still amaze me. They seem to add vibrant energy somehow, even when they're not readily apparent. I'm returning to my art career after several years, and yes, imposter syndrome has been a battle. But I'm diving in anyway.

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

Hi Belinda! We have similar backgrounds (including having imposter syndrome!). I think you're on the right track. Keep on creating!!

When I see your artwork, madam, I remember the cubism and abstract school in the most wonderful work distinguished from others

so much good stuff on here apart from the actual pic. Yes practice is all. i have been doing a personal 365 collages mission this year and i am sure better now than when i started. you also mention courses such as your own and they can be light bulb moments. thanks to you. you lightened a sleepless night in uk where like much of the world life has begun to seem a rather frightening grind. best R

@BettyFranksArt Год назад

Hi Robert! That is so cool that you've been doing a collage project! And, I bet you have learned so much throughout the year about techniques and about yourself. Love that!
