Edith Beatty
Teaching Artist
Edith Beatty maintains a studio in the village of Waterbury, Vermont. An artist most all of her life, she concentrates now on painting with oil and wax, expanding her array of surfaces, pigments, and design.
Edie was born in Boston and has lived predominantly in the Northeast. She earned a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from Indiana University, and enjoyed an extensive career designing and leading programs to promote social justice and equity. She now shifts her focus to making works of art that convey that same struggle and hope.
Edie lives with her husband, nestled into the Green Mountains of Vermont. There they enjoy inspiring views of the mountains, woods, and continual shifts in skies and weather patterns. When not painting, she cycles, kayaks, travels, cooks, and practices yoga and meditation.
