"Intention is of the utmost importance to me. I begin each sculpture with a very specific motive in mind and allow the work to reveal itself to me over time."
For the past two decades, Beverly Morrison, a Los Angeles-based sculptor, has been refining her style and techniques in clay, often referring to her work as 'Modern Day Relics'. She celebrates the rawness of clay while embracing Eastern philosophies of imperfect beauty, repeatedly allowing crevices and textures to take the lead in her minimalistic forms and vessels.
A process-oriented individual, Beverly pays tribute to her creative muse, Mother Nature, by blending and formulating her own clay bodies, engaging in the "sculptural dance" from start to finish.
She attained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Studio Arts from California State University Long Beach, yet her most noteworthy accomplishments in clay have come from a profound internal sense and self-teaching, guided by the motivation found in the natural world.

THE WORK….
Every piece on my site has been made by hand.
Hand-made ceramics will never be ‘perfect’ and will always show the hands of the maker and/or show the handmade process. This means there may be slight imperfections on the surface due to the artist’s aesthetic, the process of creation, or the firing process.
Every piece that’s been created has been looked over, inspected by the artist and deemed worthy to be loved by a collector.
Q. IS YOUR WORK SUITABLE FOR AN OUTSIDE ENVIRONMENT?
Most of my smaller decorative work is not suitable to live outside. However, I do have several large Fine Art Sculptures that would happily live in an indoor/outdoor setting. Please contact me if you would like to confirm or discuss.
Q. DO YOU WELCOME STUDIO VISITS?
Yes, studio visits are always welcome! However, due to the flux of creating and the mess that incurs, the studio isn’t always set up for visits. Please contact me to schedule.
Q. HOW LONG AFTER I PLACE MY ORDER WILL IT SHIP?
Please allow 1 - 2 weeks for in-stock work to ship. Commissions can take up to 4-8 weeks for smaller to mid-size work. Larger pieces can take up to 10-14 weeks to complete and ship. Please contact me directly for more information.
Q. DO YOU DELIVER?
Yes! Delivery in the City of Los Angeles is free for orders over $1000. Delivery to the Greater Los Angeles area is available for a fee. Please contact me for more information.
Q. WILL I BE CHARGED VAT & DUTY CHARGES TO RECEIVE MY PIECE?
