Fostering healthy communities through shared food, city, and joie de vivre.

Betsy is constantly inspired by her home city, San Francisco. She finds profound beauty in the ordinary. Her illustrations and paintings are a contemporary take on the hard and soft edges of everyday life layered with an airy California palette.

Betsy published her first cookbook with Stone Pier Press in October 2022 dedicated to making cooking easier; in short, illustrated recipes and tips from one busy creative to another. She continues to develop and illustrate plant-based recipes. Follow along via B. Free Creative Life and Times.

You can find Betsy’s work IRL at the Faight Collective and Her Urban Herbs in San Francisco, or follow her daily creative practice on IG @FreeBetsy
