Désiré Betty

Désiré Betty is a Toronto, Ontario-based artist who has long explored the spiritual serenity that manifests itself through her artistic expression, which she calls ‘Perpetual Freedom Art’.

Her passion for the arts, led her to pursue a career in Architecture; broadening her quest for constant creativity from the canvas to the built environment with the intention for all her creative outlets to co-exist harmoniously.

Her work transcends borders, as there is an elegant juxtaposition between rigidity and fluidity. With her Architectural background, she has a knack for extremely fine detail, varying line weights, and precision, all while maintaining a dreamlike state of fluidity in the brush strokes; melding shapes and colours.

Since 2009, Désiré has exhibited in several solo and group shows, beautified communities with her public art, been featured in several publications, sold pieces to art enthusiasts worldwide and most recently selected as a finalist at the Mississauga Arts Council 2023 MARTYS Awards in the Established Artist Category for Public Art.
