The son of artist Tom Beecham, Greg grew up hunting, fishing, observing nature and learning to draw - always aware of a yearning to follow in his father's footsteps.  He remembers standing for hours with his dad, studying the movements of whitetail deer in the woods behind their home.

At an art show in 1985, Beecham was further inspired by Bob Kuhn, who gave me "permission," as Greg puts it, to play with paint.  Since then, Beecham has won many awards for his fluid unions of animal and environment, including Best of Show, People's Choice and Artist's Choice awards at the C. M. Russell Auction; Best of Show, People's Choice and Featured Artist honors at the Pacific Rim Wildlife Art Show, and the Wildlife Art News Award at the Society of Animal Artist's Art Exhibition.  In addition, Beecham's artwork has been exhibited in the Museum of Natural History in Beijing, China and is in the permanent collection of the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum and Clymer Museum in Ellensburg, Washington.

A devout Christian, Greg Beecham honors the beauty of creation while raising his children to become productive, caring people and remaining a loving husband to his wife of more than twenty years.  "I try to create interesting compositions, complimented by dynamic color harmonies, light and value," he says.  "My motto?  Do all things unto the Lord and get so good you can't be ignored."
