#102, Moment of Reflection relief


Moment of Reflection, 2014
17 inches x 12.5 inches
Aluminum


The idea behind this relief was to show our connection to our past through our thoughts. As if to remember a particular moment more clearly and to feel something that has been lost. Perhaps it is of a lost lover or the memory of someone close. Her eyes are slightly closed in order to help remember this special event yet slightly opened in order to help bring the memory to the present.

#101, Into the Evening relief


Into the Evening by Sutton Betti
21 inches x 11 inches x 2 inches
aluminum, limited edition of 20

    I have been a fan of the Italian oil painter Pino for many years and when I created this mid relief sculpture I had in mind that I wanted to pay tribute to him. Some of the techniques I use I have adapted from his paintings, modified and applied towards my art.
