An accomplished ceramic sculptor, Bev was the recent winner of the Surrey Art Gallery Association Clay Competition, Winner of the SSICA Ceramics Biennial People’s Choice Award, and a large scale Ceramic Installation for Vancity. Bev enjoys creating highly textured surfaces with clay. Her favourite muse is nature, where often beauty is found in brokenness. Burned out trees, and layers of peeling bark, bear a common thread of beautiful imperfection. Her sculptural forms have a realistic quality, drawing the viewer into forest textures of bark and fungi.

Not content to replicate nature, she plays with form and colour, creating fantastical sculptural shapes, unusual colours, sometimes enhancing the visibility of fungi by her addition of 22K gold. Bev has been requested to speak at conferences and Galleries, and has been Artist In Residence in many schools. She is published in Artist Journals, magazines, the Book of 100 Vancouver Artists: WeMakeStuff, and in The Crafted Dish: a Juried Collection of talented clay artists from Across Canada.

Represented by several Galleries, she has exhibited her work throughout the Province, across Canada, and in the US. Her artwork is in corporate and private collections around the world.

Bev's muse is nature, where beauty is found in brokenness. Burned out trees, and layers of peeling bark, bear a common thread of beautiful imperfection.

Bev can be found with her family, friends, and joyful dog, exploring nature.

But, check to see if she is in the Studio first.
