Timeline
When Queen Elizabeth II visited San Francisco with Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh in the 1980s, she was presented with a Betty Guy painting as a gift from the Port of San Francisco. The Port director was sent a letter from Buckingham Palace that read "thank you for the splendid painting by Betty Guy...the picture will always awaken some very happy memories of their stay in your lovely city." Other prominent recipients of Betty Guy's work include Gianni Versace, Placido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti and the aforementioned Steinbecks.
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.
In 1957, Guy's friend Pat Covici, who worked for Viking Press publishing, commissioned Guy to travel to Bruton, England to paint a picture of one of Viking's authors as a surprise Christmas gift. That author was John Steinbeck. While Guy was in a field overlooking the Steinbeck's cottage, she was asked by Steinbeck's wife, Elaine Steinbeck what she was doing. Guy confessed to Ms. Steinbeck that she was sent by Mr. Covici and was then invited into the Steinbeck's home. This was the beginning of a long friendship between Guy and the Steinbecks until Elaine's death in 2003. This story was documented in a limited print book authored by Guy titled Surprise for Steinbeck published in 1992. Surprise for Steinbeck is in the Bodleian Library Oxford Collection.
