Beverly Dennis is an American painter, now living in Austin, Texas. Her contemporary landscapes of intense color are in found in many collections from the south to the west coast. Beverly earned her B.A. at Southern Methodist University, and her M.F.A. in painting at the University of Southern Mississippi.

She describes the influence on her works, “I am fascinated by space... by color, by line and shape. I am delighted by evidence of all of these. A painting is the perfect meeting point. The vastness of space that encloses us or invites us into intimacy. The color that changes and reveals. Light that focuses or obscures. The painting is that device that transforms 'reverie into reality and vice versa.' The painting tells me more about you than you know.”
