From the organizers: Betsy Konrad, the acclaimed San Diego abstract artist whose work has been featured in in New York galleries, has a new show next month in La Jolla. The show is scheduled for May 12, and will be hosted at Dunia’s Hair Lounge, 1110 Torrey Pines Road, Suite E, in La Jolla. The show, which runs from 6-10 p.m., is free to the public. The renowned French Gourmet of Pacific Beach will cater the event with complimentary food, along with wine and beverages. Konrad is a former foreign policy and national security expert and consultant whose work included time in the White House. She retired due to medical conditions, then turned her focus to the arts. She has since found her passion for painting and became a full-time abstract artist who has quickly found critical and commercial success. “It’s only as the paint and my brush flow that I find the direction I’m heading -- which goes with my wanderlust personality,” Konrad said. “I’ve traveled a lot and have found that my best adventures and experiences were when I was ‘lost or didn’t have a plan.’ ” 
Konrad’s website, which features numerous examples of her work and details of her extraordinary life, is www.betsykonrad.com.
