Bev is a White Rock, B.C. artist who works in oils, acrylics, watercolours
and pastels. Sunlit autumn scenes, golden evening light, trees and water
are her favourite subjects. She also likes to paint old buildings with a
sense of mystery, intrigued with their past and the people who lived in
them. Bev strives to capture the feeling of a place using impressionistic
colour and rearranging the scene to produce a mood, rather than a
realistic depiction.
Bev grew up in northern British Columbia and moved to Vancouver
Island after attending U.B.C. She studied art at the University of Victoria
and Malaspina College and worked in watercolour for many years.
For the past five years she has worked mainly in acrylics and pastels.
Bev exhibits with The Fraser Valley Chapter, Federation of Canadian
Artists, Pastel Artists Canada and at the Federation Gallery, Granville Island.
