Beryl works in oils, water colour, pastel, collage, ink, mixed media and graphite. When time allows she occasionally gives insights into her work on her blog berylnoyce.blogspot. Beryl seeks to explore new ways of expressing her ideas through the medium of watercolour combined with other media and with oils which sometimes incorporate graphite and oil pastel as well as gold leaf. Beryl uses artist quality paints and grounds. Motifs vary embracing the overtly spiritual themes of angels and goddesses to portraiture and landscape subjects. Representation varies from traditional to more contemporary and abstract interpretations of landscapes and portraits in all media- oils on canvas, mixed media, watercolour and pastel. Beryl accepts commissions for portraits. Beryl has worked in both 2d and 3d including ceramics, plaster, fabric and wax sculptures using the lost was method. Beryl's work has been exhibited in both London and New York. Primarily Beryl now works in 2d and also as an author.
She has spent many years, more than fifteen, studying various aspects of spirituality, myth and mysticism. She holds a first class degree in English Literature and Creative Writing as well as being a qualified Reiki Teaching Master and Guardian of Four Crystal Skulls.
She has travelled widely and lectured on the myth of the Crystal Skulls and her work with them. Her first novel The Turning Zone is a contemporary Grail Quest written in the age-old tradition of a child's fairy story but which is aimed at an adult readership. It is the first part of a trilogy which incorporates much of Beryl's spiritual knowledge and addresses the current interest in the Mayan Prophecy for 2012. It is available as a kindle book or by order in paperback from berylnoyce.com. The trilogy is part of a series called the Weavers and Watchers. Beryl has included a few illustrations in The Turning Zone. All copies of The Turning Zone ordered directly from Berylnoyce.com or purchased at a promotional venue directly from Beryl will be signed by the author.
Beryl is an active member (Membership Secretary) of PACS- Petersfield Arts And Crafts Society and will be exhibiting some of her paintings at the Annual Exhibition in August. Beryl will be holding her first solo Eehibition, The Journeyman at The Flora Twort Gallery, Petersfield in April 2012. It will run for one week from the 24th to the 28th April. It will be a collection of images in oil on canvas, watercolour on paper, mixed media and possibly some poetry extracts relating to the journey we as human beings make through life : the impact we have on the landscape and the impact the landscape makes on the mind and memory.
In other words it will present various perceptions of our inner and outer landscapes. The work will include some traditional landscapes as well as some abstract work.
