Beatrice Ridley's first exhibition at the Lennox Gallery in September 2009 marked a radical change for Beatrice from life as a litigation lawyer to the world of art. Although training and working as a lawyer, Beatrice Ridley, rooted in a family of eminent artists, has painted since the 1980’s, a passion that has never abated.

Starting off constructing and painting her canvasses in her parents’ attic in the French Alps, she continued painting whenever she could throughout her busy career in the litigation world in London.

Beatrice Ridley now works in her studio in Earl's Court in London.
