I’m Beau. I’m an artist and creator, Beverly Hills born and raised, and I’ve spent my life making something beautiful out of everything.
Art is what I do first. For twenty years it’s been my longest conversation — the Plastic series (Barbie portraits sealed in Swarovski crystals), Need Money For in pink neon, Hello Kitty, sculpture, paintings. Yes, people have called me the Barbie of Beverly Hills since I was twelve. It’s a wink, not a label. The doll has a beating heart. I’ve spent two decades making art that proves it.
From the art came everything else. 3 Bulldog Films (a female-led production company). Beverly Hills Farm (single-origin olive oil with my best friend Tash). Plastic Creative Studio. Who Is She Wearing. Each one started as something I wanted to exist in the world, and didn’t. Beausworld is the house I built for all of it.
I’ve been through more in this body than people might guess from the outside — cancer, autoimmune, five years on crutches and in a wheelchair, lipedema. That part of my story matters. It doesn’t define me. It’s woven into the work, the mother I am, the patience I have with the things I’m making.
I’m a mom of twins. I’m a wife to my best friend James. I’m a friend to a circle of women I’d do anything for. Motherhood is part of me, not the whole of me — and that’s the most honest thing I can say about being a woman who is many things at once.
I hand-built every inch of this site — every room, every photograph, every paragraph, every line of code. The art, the films, the farm, the family, the friends, the animals, all the things I love, live in one house here. You’re not signing up for a newsletter. You’re walking into a world.
The kettle’s on. Stay as long as you want.
xoxo, Beau
For the woman making something beautiful out of everything.
It’s not Barbie’s World.
It’s Beausworld.
