Java Divine Features the Art of Beth Reece Oct. 8 Art After Dark 2nd Friday
Friday, October 8 from 6 to 8 pm with free wine tasting and light appetizers at Java Divine.
Beth Reece’s unconditional love for art started with the inspiration of a wonderful art teacher in high school in Millington, Tennessee. Some of her earliest paintings came from fond memories and time spent at her Grandmother’s home.
Beth received her Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in Graphic Design from the University of Memphis. She began her independent studies in Memphis with Melody Weintraub using watercolors. Watercolors held a subtlety that other mediums did not.
Watercolor landscapes and architectural renderings had been Beth’s focus. She continues her work with watercolor and colored pencil. In 2008, two of Beth's pieces were entered in the North Carolina State Fair Art Exhibition. Both of the pieces were juried into the Exhibition and one went on and placed 3rd in the professional artist category. This was her first submission in a competition arena.
In North Carolina, Beth has studied with Rhonda Myers reinforcing the classical master process. Rhonda's talent is inspirational. Beth currently works at the studio of Cary Fine Art under Rhonda’s mentorship.
An opportunity to study with Dan Nelson in Plenn Aire setting using acrylic paints was very helpful for Beth's work in this medium.
Studying with Master Painter Frank Covino was a turning point for Beth. Mr. Covino teaches oil painting in the style of the Old Masters, using oil verdaccio as an underpainting then applying skin tone and color glazes. This process creates a painting that will not fade with time.
Beth’s work is currently exhibited in the following places:
WakeMed Children’s Diabetes and Endocrinology Clinic in Raleigh, NC
Rey’s Restaurant, Cary, NC
Beth lives in Holly Springs, North Carolina. She is a wife, a mother of two teenage sons, and a gardener. Spending time on the tennis courts with friends is one of her passions. She proudly claims Memphis, Tennessee as her home.

Artist Jeanne Miller reception at Java Divine, Sept. 10,
Java Divine Italian Café to host the art work of Jeanne Miller through the month of September. Meet the artist at a free opening reception September 10th from 6 to 8pm. Wine tasting and light appetizers. 128 Bass Lake Road, Holly Springs, www.javadivine.com
Jeanne Miller grew up in western New York and thoroughly enjoyed having a state park for a backyard. Growing up, exploring creeks, trails and Lake Ontario were a daily occurrence in all seasons. She enjoyed playing outdoor sports and sketching nature scenes but found she loved warm weather to enjoy her hobbies even more.
Jeanne graduated from East Carolina University with a BFA in painting and a minor in Business Administration determined to use both sides of her brain. She took a hiatus from art while raising and homeschooling her children but within the last few years, God and her best friend rekindled her love for the outdoors and sketching. She has traveled throughout North Carolina with a sketchbook in her backpack.
Jeanne has lived in NC for twenty-three years and has called Fuquay Varina home for the last eight years, content with her fabulous four daughters and faithful seventeen-year old dog. Her various landscape paintings, animal portraits and sketches are currently on display for the month of September at Java Divine Café in Holly Springs.
