Ashes Into Art AG WORLD 27-2-21 Bettye Wilson-Brokl is a painter from Mississippi who puts cremated remains into her artwork. She creates a painting at the request of family members and then sprinkles two to three tablespoons of ashes over the freshly painted canvas before applying a sealant coat. She has done over 300 paintings, half from the remains of pets and half from humans. Prices range from $350 to $950 (U.S.) and she has a 6 to 8-week turnaround.
"My customers want to keep part of their loved ones with them," she says. "The artwork is designed to bring a smile to the family's face and not tears. Their memorial should be as unique as their loved one was."
