Betsy Ross was born in 1943 in Columbus,
Ohio and grew up in the scenic rural hills of southeastern Ohio.
She spent her childhood amidst the colorful and adventure-filled
comings and goings of her father's veterinary practice.
Her affection and fond remembrances of her rural Ohio childhood and
idyllic charm of the Swiss mountains are the main subjects of her art
and writing.
Her childhood remembrances of her pet horse "Black Beauty" are the
subject of a trilogy written and illustrated by the artist.
Similar to her paintings, there is a message in each of the three
stories, which is sure to captivate readers of all ages.
