Art Exhibit at the Gables: SCULPTURE: The Beverly Seamans' Collection

Experience the wonder and delight through the works of this amazingly gift artist.

Known internationally as a talented sculptor of animals and children, Beverly Seamans was also a prolific painter.  This exhibit includes her sculptures and paintings.  A lifetime of creativity is expressed in the endearing figures and animals cast in bronze.  

The exhibit will features both watercolors and sculptures with some debut pieces.  A photographed tour of the lost-wax process will be depicted and we hope to allow each visitor into the world of inspiration as viewed by the late Mrs. Seamans.

"Sculpture for me is a celebration of life" Beverly Benson Seamans once said, and we certainly have to agree!
