- Anong Migwans Beam, painter and founder of Beam Paints, is thoughtfully and methodically building her art practice and art materials business.
Beam Paints (the business) is like a natural extension of Anong. The idea for the business came after sharing images of taking her two sons on rock/pigment gathering excursions. The positive response and interest online had Anong thinking about how she could share her handmade paints.
In this episode of our Living A Creative Life series, you'll hear from Anong about her approach to combining traditional and modern knowledge, and the backstory of the Beam Paints business - all part of Anong's Creative Adventure.

About our theme: Creative Adventure
As we move into the Summer season, we're exploring the theme 'Creative Adventure’ - a celebration of fresh air and fresh interactions in the artistic process.
Being out in the open as well as coming together as a community can reinvigorate our spirits and spark our creativity. Whether we’re Plein Air painting, sketching, photographing natural landscapes, exploring the world (through lens, pencil or brush) or creating site-specific installations, these shared experiences and the inspiration gathered from our surroundings are stepping stones towards the creation of something truly unique and meaningful.
So let’s get out there and fully immerse ourselves and interact with the outdoors. Let’s connect with fellow creatives. Nurturing our spirits through these experiences will set us up for a memorable summer full of inspiration and creativity, enabling us to gain new perspectives, find inspiration, and appreciate our artistic pursuits more deeply.

Thank you for sharing your story, your craft and making traditions, and your beautiful crafting. I have been looking forward to trying out this paints. the existence of your business - or your paint stones - is part of what got me interested in trying watercolours!

I enjoyed Anong Beam’s stories, art and insights. She has learned much in her life and, passing on that knowledge and growing a company, employing people in the community are all wonderful things to come from it. She is moving ahead with careful thought to the environment and the health of artists with the materials used. I wish Beam Paints success and happiness.👏🤩🌸. Great feature, Opus Art Supplies.
