September's Featured Artist

Beverly Morgan

Example imgage 1 Example imgage 2 Example imgage 3

Mediums:

Beverly has always been a creative person. Her journey began when she taught Home Economics including textiles, tailoring, and pattern design. All that fabric got her interested in quilting and led her to own a quilt shop. Designing inspired her to take semester long courses in drawing and painting. Having a collection of gemstones peaked an interest in jewelry so she studied silversmithing at the College of DuPage in Illinois and the William Holland School of Lapidary Arts in Georgia, and locally with the Brevard Rock and Gem Club. Not limited to silver, she also works with copper and cold connections. Her designs use stones, gems, copper, silver, whatever strikes her fancy as she explores a variety of materials and techniques Beverly says “All of this was a way to enrich my life, creatively, emotionally and socially”.
