Betty Frost 1930 -2011 spent most of her growing-up years in Spokane, Washington. As a young woman she attended the Cornish College of the Arts, where she met and married her husband, Russell. Within a few years they had built their life around their painting, living a rather nomadic life in various locals around the Puget Sound area from La Push to Coupeville. They finally settled on Camano Island, building what she called a “dwelling” to work and live in. The creative talent of Betty Frost is evident in her delicate portraits and renderings of women of all ages, images that capture a range of emotions. After her husband’s death in 1996, she produced an extraordinary series of works illustrating her journey of grief. See less
