Betty Beasley
Trained in classical sculpture, Betty Beasley has demonstrated the making of clay sculpture for the Georgia Heritage Association and is one of the artists who are responsible for the life size mule, sharecropper, and young boy installed at the Georgia Agricultural Center in Perry, Georgia. She is a member of the Roswell Fine Arts Alliance, the Dawson County Arts Association, and the Blackberry Creek Artists Association. She has won numerous awards in juried exhibits and is collected by public and private patrons who applaud her talent.
A native of Brooklyn, New York, this artist began her career by drawing recognizable horses at age two. While her classmates were chewing their wax lips or gum, Betty was busy shaping hers into tiny herds of Arabian horses. At age four, her Dad took her to see Man ‘O War, the immortal race horse and Betty recalls that as she touched his nose, her life began taking its turn.
Bettyk Beasley's inspiration comes from her daily life on her and her husband’s North Georgia farm that they share with their dog, cat, and three Arabian horses.
