Beth Carlson Portrait Paintings
American, b. 1953
Beth Carlson’s sporting and narrative paintings and portraits are coveted by many collectors across the country. For sporting collectors, they convey the excitement of the flush, the beauty of the hunting dogs, and the prize at the end of the day. Her paintings have soul and capture the excitement of the hunt for both the hunter and the dog. In her narrative paintings, Beth proves to be a witty storyteller of a dog’s life. In her portraiture, Carlson’s ability to consistently capture an individual animal’s personality and physical characteristics can be directly attributed to her far-reaching knowledge pertaining to animals in general. “She possesses a conviction of accuracy and authenticity which are both necessary and appreciated by her collectors,” said Robert Abbett of Carlson’s work.
In the relatively short time that Carlson has been painting, she has been featured in many publications including Garden & Gun, Sporting Classics, The American Brittany and Chronicle of the Horse, to name a few. Her work has also graced the covers of many national magazines including Gray’s Sporting Journal. Beth Carlson has five paintings in museums; two paintings in the permanent collection at the Brittany Hall of Fame in the National Bird Dog Museum in Tennessee, and three paintings have been bequeathed to the prestigious Museum of the Dog in St. Louis, Missouri. She is also a member of the nationally recognized organizations Women Artists of the West and Oil Painters of America.
Carlson lives on a farm on the coast of Maine with her husband, Peter, her dogs, and her Icelandic horse. Her studio is in a barn that housed her beloved horses.to
