Introducing another local artist this Maker Monday! Meet Bethany, the artist behind @bethanyskyfineart .
Bethany’s journey began in 2024 when she picked up an oil painting brush and never looked back. Deeply inspired by our local landscapes, she paints en plein air to truly connect with the beauty of the coast. Through her work, she hopes to share that same sense of wonder and connection with everyone who views her pieces.
Find Bethany’s breathtaking landscapes waiting for you at the store! ✨
Watch the world bloom on canvas. 🌺
Follow along as Ana of @anaboazart brings this vibrant landscape to life. Watching her process is just as beautiful as the finished piece itself. 🎨

We’re excited to showcase her SLO Back Roads collection right here in the store!
