Beth Pedersen

My work echoes the underlying theme of nature and our ever changing environment. I use my art to explore the environmental issues of the day. Each series deals with the landscape (land, air, water) or bodyscape (animal, insect, plant life), any of which have been subjected to society’s carelessness. Working abstractly and with the energy of the moment, I navigate among various media, making use of painting, lithographic ink based monotypes, encaustic, drawing and three dimensional pieces that are dually of the world and the studio.
