Beverly Beighle

Born and raised in Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, I spent most of my life in Colorado.  There I enjoyed the beautiful Rocky Mountains camping and skiing.  In the 1970-80’s I painted in oils and acrylics.  After moving to Washington in 2002, my interests turned to watercolor and fabric art.

​

Besides taking classes from nationally known artists, I have taken classes from local artists-- Sally Cays, Patricia Taynton, Robert Brown, George Zien, and Maria Shipova.  I have also taken classes from fabric artists.  

I find that painting and fabric art classes complement each other, both teaching design concepts and color theory.  It is exciting to watch something “come alive” as I create.  There seems to be no limit to the challenges they both present.  I am often wondering how to both paint on fabric and paint fabric on paper.

​

From an early age I have tried to create things from nothing, i.e., fabric scraps into doll clothes.  Being creative brings me joy and I hope that other people also enjoy my creations.

​

I am inspired by the beauty around me.  That which God creates can never be truly repeated, but I enjoy trying to capture what I see.
