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.  

Following voice and English studies at Ohio University and Bradley, she left for Europe with her husband in 1964.  Since then, they have lived in various countries, spending the majority of their time in Geneva, Switzerland.

Betsy began her painting in the early 1980’s by studying Swiss naive art.  As her flower and Swiss Alpine motifs came into demand, her studies turned into a profession.  Her first award-winning show in 1985 launched a series of successful exhibits in Europe and the U.S.    Her works may now be found in museums, galleries and private collections worldwide.

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.
