I am Elfreda I. Bartley-Henson, an Artist. I still am amazed that my journey over the
past 9 years has blessed me with this title.
My surroundings motivate me to create Art. Sea and landscape are often my subject
matter, usually painting from my imagination or memory of a favorite spot. Lately I find my
paintings becoming abstract. The freedom I feel when I go down this path is exciting. Acrylic
and oil paints are my medium, often applied with a palette knife for texture and effect.
To me, Art is ever changing, for both the artist and the viewer. Art is the greatest form
of expression; it creates beauty and translation. Art contributes to the world, the history of the
world in some instance; translating the past and present. My Art is a form of expression and an
emotional outlet; and also without any defining rule.
I look forward to continued creativity,
Elfreda I. Bartley-Henson
