B. Youngquist Contemporary Art

 "Abstract art is the language of the unseen."

 Many years ago, when my creative space was in my laundry room, and my children were young, I took whatever time I could find to make sense of life and express my experiences through art. Painting is the language of the soul. It transcends the language barrier. Inspired by nature and life's inherent mystery, painting is where I commune with what inspires and guides me. 

"Beauty is an outer reflection in the world of form of your innermost essence." -Eckhart Tolle

Now I find myself painting in a full sized studio overlooking water, sky, and land where all living things see to radiate from within and change every moment. What could be more inspirational?
My contemporary abstract artwork pushes me out of my comfort zone and into the art world. my abstract art has been shown locally, nationally, and internationally. I have met so many other wonderful artists and art lovers who carry the spirit of beauty and inspiration and have come to be my tribe.

"Your home should be a sacred space."

Thank you for coming this far. I hope my art inspires you to tap into spaciousness and your innermost essence.
Pick your perfect piece.

With love and gratitude,

Bernadette

  • We have six of your prints in our kitchen! We love your passion and style! -Stacey Hopner

  • We have a few original pieces from Bernadette in our home. We originally went to her for a pop of life and color in our entryway, but also fell in love with one for our dining room. For our entry she helped custom frame a set of paintings and they are perfect. Our dining room art was one I saw on social media and was drawn to, and when I saw it in person I knew it was ours. It brought so much positive energy to the room. -Abbey Bargohls-Boeding

  • I'm a fan of Bernadette's work and am privileged to have one of her paintings hanging in our living room. She is such a talented artist and I always enjoy talking with her when we show up at the same art openings. -Gloria Campbell

  • Every Bernadette Youngquist painting showcases a unique, expansive relationship with paint, color, form, and her inner and outer world. Her work is as bold and vibrant as she is kind and humble, a fascinating
    complexity. -Marj Hahne
