The internet is a scary place. I have seen my artwork on unauthorized websites. Anyone found to have infringed a copyrighted work may be liable for statutory damages up to $30,000 for each work infringed and, if willful infringement is proven by the copyright owner, that amount may be increased up to $150,000 for each work infringed. The only authorized websites allowed to display my artwork are www.beccamulenburg.com, www.beccamulenburg.blogspot.com, and galleries currently showing my work. Any other website, posting, sales of my work, or the like, is illegitimate and operating under copyright infringement without my permission. This includes Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Amazon (worldwide), and more. Please be aware. Copyrights do not transfer with the sale of any of my artworks.
About I paint exclusively from personal experience, oil is my favorite medium. I've been juried into a few nice art shows, have sold internationally, and won numerous awards. I've been painting for over 18 years.
Personal Data Residence: Duluth, Minnesota. Spark bird: Eastern Whip-poor-will, whose song I fell asleep to on hot summer nights as a child. Runner-up spark bird: Eastern Wood-Pewee, who sang on the hottest of summer days while doing chores in my dad's garden.
Education Bachelor of Science, Journalism, Honors, University of Wisconsin at Madison. As an artist, self-taught.
Personal Interests Birds (of course!), photography, and caring for our environment by planting native trees and shrubs. I'm a supporter of dark skies, unkept lawns, weedy ditches, and pollinators. I'm also a tireless and determined warrior against invasive European buckthorn and common tansy.
Thoughts from the artist Thank you collectors. Your support makes a difference in my life. Works shown on my website are not exhaustive. I shy away from most galleries and don’t enter a lot of shows. Are you interested in a work? Have you seen a painting on my website but it's no longer there? Feel free to contact me, serious buyers only.
