Then, in 1983 she took a major step into print making. The technical challenge of this medium, combined with her already well-defined skill as a professional artist, provided a positive avenue for printmaking as a full time career. Beki’s original prints have been represented by Island International Artists since 1982. In 1987 Beki and her husband relocated to the Pacific Northwest and from her studio in Washington’s Northern Puget Sound, she was able to devote full time to the developments of her prints and further refine her skills in her beloved medium, watercolor. In the early 2000’s, With the technical advancements of computers came a process of printing known as Giclee. This process generates a print that is technically superior to most other types of reproductions. Archivally treated pigmented inks and fine art rag watercolor paper are used to produce these prints. With some hand embellishment on each one, this process enabled Beki to expand the horizon of her watercolor imagery into the national marketplace.
