Welcome to my world of art!

I began my love of art growing up on a cattle ranch in Southern Idaho and in a home that encouraged fine arts and music. I feel the most at home with a paint brush in hand. With so many stories to tell and an imagination that runs from my mind to my brush, the most effective way for me to tell my stories is through my art, whether it be with watercolor or oil. Art has many layers, each experience and turn you take in life culminates into the feelings of one’s paintings.

At age 86, I have done many things that have broadened my artist base, working with some of the most prominent artists during my career from The Chicago Art Institute to Spokane Western Art Show. My art hangs in homes and buildings in many countries.

My greatest treasure in life is my family and we are a robust group full of love! With 10 children, 35 grandchildren and 18+ great grandkids and counting, I decided the best way for me to share my love of art was through painting every day.

Enjoy! Cloyd Bedke
