Stuart Beavers
Stu Beavers is a metal artist from Durham, NC. Stu’s mother was a welder and though she tried to teach him, he always preferred painting and drawing. It wasn’t until he took a formal welding class at Durham Tech that those lessons with his mom clicked and he understood her love of metal– he’s been obsessed ever since. He is heavily inspired by wildlife, recreating the flora and fauna of his favorite tropical landscapes. As a handyman and hobbyist auto mechanic, his materials are always close by and he sees the potential in the everyday objects around him.
