Beverley has been drawing, painting and printmaking for over thirty years. After receiving a first class degree in Fine Art from Canterbury Christ Church University, she then undertook her MA in Fine Art Printmaking. Beverley continues to make her own work, specialising in large colour etchings, but also drawing, painting and making digital works on an iPad. She has had exhibitions both locally and nationally, including exhibitions in London and Edinburgh, as well as having her work in individual private collections and corporation collections in the UK and New York. Beverley particularly loves the magic of deep etching, employing many varied techniques and using vibrant colours. Her techniques within the world of etching are unorthodox; using a variety of methods on each plate such as etching, aquatint, drypoint, spitbite, electric tools and any experimental method that achieves the desired result. Her work is figurative but leaves room for viewers to use their own imagination. Beverley likes to work in series, making multiple etchings than can be hung individually or part of a coherent group. Recently Beverley has been experimenting with digital prints bringing her knowledge from the ancient methods to slip into the modern approach without losing the personal quality.
