Betsy Campen's Tropical Realism
Inspired by the
colorful flowers blooming only two weeks after Hurricane
Hugo struck St. Croix in 1989, Artist Betsy Campen decided
to devote herself full time to her painting. “When I left
Richmond, Virginia, I was just a Sunday painter,” she says.
“But, after Hurricane Hugo, I found it was a lot easier to
push a paint brush than a wheelbarrow.” To this day, Betsy
continues to paint eight hours a day, every day.
