Bea Ortiz is a Spanish-American artist whose practice centers on painting and drawing, based in the Catskills of New York. She studied fine art and completed post-graduate studies in art education in Spain before moving to New York City in 1998. There, she built an international career as a decorative painter and muralist while continuing to develop her personal artistic practice.

Bea loves collaborating with other artists on multidisciplinary performances, creating installations that merge live painting, dance, music, and other art forms—inviting audiences to actively participate in the creative process.

Passionate about making art accessible to all, she has led creative programs in schools, nursing homes, and community organizations, encouraging artistic exploration across all ages and backgrounds.

She believes in the transformative power of art and is dedicated to creating work that fosters connection, healing, and a deeper awareness of our shared existence.
