Betty Guy was born in San Fransico. She began taking art classes and used watercolors for the first time while in graduate school at the University of California, Berkeley. She left Berkeley and began traveling. It was in Europe that she honed her skills as a landscape artist. Paris soon became her favorite subjects for her work. Her first exhibition was at the Gallerie Henri Tronche on Rue de La Boete. At that exhibition, she sold enough of her work to remain in Europe and continue painting.

Guy returned to the states and began displaying her work at Gumps gallery in San Francisco, eventually becoming the longest continuing artist to display art with Gumps, surviving eight directors. Her first museum exhibit was at the California Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco on December 15, 1961. Her exhibit was called "the most delightful show of the year" by then art and music critic for the San Francisco Chronicle, Alfred Frankenstein. Guy continued to travel and paint landscapes all over the world and amass an archive of hundreds of original paintings. less
