Sandy Steen Bartholomew
Illustrator, Author, Cartoonist, Brainstormer, CZT (Certified Zentangle Teacher), Mom... 
Although my art training is in illustration (and Egyptology!), I am constantly trying new materials and projects. My current passion is comics. The best description for my work is bi-polar mixed media. I love luscious, bright colors, but I also adore rusty, crusty, ancient artifacts. My challenge is to find ways to combine the two! I use whatever materials I need to to convey the idea (including database and website design!) |
Here is my semi-official Bio in case you need to write something nice about me:
Sandy Steen Bartholomew is an author, illustrator, cartoonist, mixed-media artist, and a Certified Zentangle® Teacher. She runs an Etsy store (Bumblebat), a studio in her converted barn (Beez Ink), and a bigger studio (The BeeHive) at the Concord Community Art Center. Her life looks like a Zentangle - all tangle-y and full of crazy patterns! She is inspired by juicy, jewel-tones and rusty-crusty, peeling, earth-covered things. Magic and mystery, bits and pieces, and weird little creatures. If it sits still, she'll paint it. Sandy lives with her two kids and a cat in their colorful, mixed-media house in Warner, NH - a town full of introverted artists. Visit her website for samples of her work and inspiration: www.SandySteenBartholomew.com or her blog: www.BeezInTheBelfry.com to see what she is up to lately. 
The name BEEZ ink comes from my old rubber stamp company. It was called Bartholomew's Ink Murder-Mystery Rubber Stamps. My customers shortened the name to B's Ink.
When I sold the company, B's Ink became BEEZ ink. The bee theme - which carries through all my businesses and logos - is appropriate as my mind is constantly humming and buzzing with ideas! |
