Contemplating My Future Over Breakfast, Watercolor on Paper 22''x30'' Terrece Beesley's watercolor paintings are as delicate in their subject matter as they are in the technical dexterity of their execution. For her subject, she mines cultural ephemera as much as the transient moment of personal reflection, resulting in a body of work that is deeply thoughtful yet bearing a lithe spirit. Beesley borrows from a number of artistic movements and styles to arrive at her singular approach to watercolor. She seems to reinvent the medium with ease, depicting new subjects with unprecedented punches of color and luminosity. However, beneath some of the ironic choices of subject and composition, Beesley reveals a subtle and enduring appreciation for the simplicities of nature, color, and light.

Beesley grew up in Idaho and graduated from Utah State University with a BFA in painting and textile design to pursue a career in product design, publishing, and computer animation. Now a fulltime artist, she has shown her works across the Western States. Terrece Beesley lives and works in Layton, Utah.
