A brown ceramic vase, full to overflowing with purple blooms. In Quiet Counsel the Soul Grows is a still life that earns its title — unhurried, grounded, and quietly radiant. Bethany Joseph lets the vibrant purple and green of the flowers do what flowers do: insist on themselves against the warm earth tones and beige that hold the scene. Rich, considered, and deeply alive.

Bethany Joseph is a classically trained realist artist based in Fort Worth, Texas. She is inspired to create paintings that evoke a palpable moodiness described through dramatic light and shadows. Her aim is to capture the beauty around her with a muted palette while staying true to the techniques of the Old Masters.
