Member Biography

Beverly Shaw-Starkovich

ARTIST STATEMENT

"My goal is not to render a location but to convey the essence of a scene. By concentrating on color, shape and volume I strive to create a mood. In addition to the medium, I use music to soothe and motivate me, and I hope this is reflected in each piece. It is my hope that the painting will evoke a pleasant memory, that the viewer will be able to conjure up their own story as they view my work, or at the very least hear the music from within."
