Olivia Beau

Olivia Beau paints from her studio in Ilkley, working primarily in acrylics and using vintage maps of Yorkshire within her work.

Olivia’s artwork is inspired by The Yorkshire coastline and the stunning greens of the landscape around her home in Ilkley. In 2022 she exhibited a collection of eight artworks at the ‘Friends of Ham’ restaurant and arts venue in the town.  Each artwork contains a map segment of Yorkshire, and the title of the collection.

She found herself post-pandemic dabbling with paint and then within months she became a full-time artist. Three years on, Olivia is still pinching herself that this is what she gets to do!
