Beverly Wilson has a remarkable ability to turn ordinary moments into extraordinary works of art. Her oil paintings, inspired by the ever-changing seasons, light, and temperature, capture the essence of rural life through bold compositions, distinctive strokes, and a carefully curated palette of colors. Her art reflects a deep connection to the land and the relationship between man and nature, themes that are central to her work.

In the early 1970s, Beverly studied under the guidance of Richard Diebenkorn at UCLA, where she was drawn to the expressive qualities of the colorists and expressionists. This influence sparked an evolution in her artistic journey, leading her to develop a vibrant and unique style. After earning her BFA, Beverly spent a year in Italy, selling sketches as she traveled through the picturesque vineyards of Tuscany and Umbria. It was there, immersed in the tranquility and beauty of rural life, that her love for the wine country blossomed.

In 1983, Beverly moved to the Napa Valley, where she continues to live and paint amidst the serene landscape that inspires much of her work. Her art captures the rhythms of the countryside, transforming her observations into vivid expressions of the land’s beauty.

Beverly’s works are held in private collections and have been commissioned by a variety of distinguished organizations, including AltaMed, Heritage Produce, Beringer Vineyards, Franzia Winery, and U.S. Congressman Mike Thompson, among others. Whether in the Napa Valley or on her travels, Beverly’s paintings are a testament to her love of nature and the quiet moments that make life extraordinary.
