Tasha Tudor and her daughter’s Bethany and Efner. – ‘Drawn from New England’ by Bethany Tudor
Drawn From New England Tasha Tudor A Portrait In Words and Pictures – By Bethany Tudor
~ ‘Bethany describes in affectionate detail the world her mother created and made famous. The result is not merely the portrait of an artist, but also a celebration of her highly individual way of life.’ – Drawn From New England
Bethany has shared many fond memories she has of growing up as Tasha Tudor’s Daughter. She does indeed have much in common with her mother.
The Private World of Tasha Tudor. By Richard brown
Bethany shares her mom’s love of birds. And like Tasha, Bethany is the owner of forty – something birds. She likes many of the same breeds as Tasha, such as the tiny Australian diamond dove, domesticated ring neck doves from African, African cape and Tambourine dove, Zebra finches, Fife and American singers Canaries and hand raised Cockatiels. When I ring Bethany up on the phone, it is so delightful hearing the bird song in the background. Bethany breeds birds and has a great knowledge of them. I do enjoy learning about the different birds from her – both domestic and birds in the wild.
Bethany was a frequent model.

Just encase you were wondering – Bethany prefers to wear skirts. She finds them to be more comfortable than pants.
Here I am with my new friends Bethany Tudor. Happy Birthday Bethany! I hope you enjoyed your chocolate mousse cake!!
For A Special Friend…..
‘Mem’ry has painted this perfect day
With colors that never fade,
And we find, at the end of a perfect day,
The soul of a friend we’ve made.”
