Art That Speaks in Stillness
Beth Bei | Contemporary Artist
Beth Bei is a contemporary abstract artist who creates paintings that speak softly — drawn from silence, memory, and light. Her work invites you to pause, feel, and reflect through minimalist forms and layered emotion.
Welcome
Hello, I’m Beth Bei
I’m a visual artist drawn to stillness, emotion, and the quiet in-between. Though I was born in Shanghai, it wasn’t until much later — during the stillness of lockdown in the Hamptons — that I truly began to paint. What started as a self-taught exploration (thank you, YouTube!) evolved into something deeper through courses at the Parrish Museum and the New York Academy of Art.
Painting, for me, is a way of remembering what we often forget to feel. My work is about moments that don’t shout — it’s about light, texture, memory, and what lingers beneath the surface.
My Philosophy
” I don’t paint what I see — I paint what I feel before I even understand it. My work is quiet, layered, and slow… like memory. Like light at the end of the day. Every piece I create begins without a plan — only a mood. I follow color, texture, tension… until something honest appears. My hope is that you’ll find a part of yourself in that silence too. “

My Studio
Tucked away in a quiet space surrounded by natural light, textures, and unfinished canvases — this is where my work begins. Every brushstroke, every layer of silence and color, takes shape here.
My Work
I don’t paint to explain. I paint to feel.
Each canvas you see here was born in quiet moments — layered over time, often with no clear end in mind. They’re fragments of thought, traces of light, pieces of something deeper
My
Work begins
in silence and unfolds
in slow honest
layers.
