Beverly discovered the unique quality of light and color that is native to Maui and Kauai on her first visit several years ago, and has been painting island subject matter ever since. Her work captures the special feeling of the islands' warm and relaxing breezes. Her works investigated the luminous effects of backlit florals and nature scenes that glow warmly across a rich pallet of color.
