Drawing inspiration from the Hudson River School and the Luminists, his paintings are distinguished by their masterful use of light, color, and atmosphere, transforming familiar scenes into timeless meditations on place.
A North Carolina native, Beerman's work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. He attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and earned a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Beerman has received numerous awards and fellowships, including the Pollack-Krasner Foundation Award and the Yaddo Artist Colony Fellowship.

JOSEPH MCGURL:'Within Everglades-Sunset' c.1990-2008 Oil on linen,18 x 24 in. / Frame: 26 x 32 in. |

Joseph McGurl (b. 1958) is extensively regarded as one of America's leading landscape painters. Designated a 'Living Master' by the Art Renewal Center, his work is often likened to the great 19th century luminist painters, but with a modern sensibility to style and subject. Informed by his muralist father and time as a sailor, his work captures marine and landscape scenes across the eastern coast. He depicts these landscapes en plein air which allows him to deeply understand both subject and elements of light, form, space, and color while on site.
McGurl's paintings have been included in several museum exhibitions across the United States. He has had retrospective solo shows at the Cape Museum of Fine Arts, The Cahoon Museum of American Art, and the Saint Botolph Club of Boston. McGurl is an elected member of the Guild of Boston Artists and is a Copley Master with the Copley Society of Boston, and has received multiple accolades including the John Singleton Copley Award for Artistic Achievement.
