Over the past years Beth Namenwirth has been making rather small paintings. She tries to make them as quick as possible because she discovered that speed improves the expressiveness and makes the paint look alive
Also does she like the paint to be thick and rich, so one can really see that the image is painted. Usually she chooses a subject which she finds whimsicle, awkward or subjects she has strong feelings about. These can be everyday life situations or political topics. By combining several visual elements in the painting a new artificial reality is created.
