After drawing for one year his instructor moved Cole on to oil painting. Cole studied painting for almost three years. By age nine Cole had his first group show and by eleven his first solo showing. Cole and his wife moved to New Hampshire in 1984. Cole opened his own studio in 1994 embarking on his art career and has been painting ever since. The artist and his wife added to their family by adopting baby girls from China in 2001 and in 2003. The artist and his family live in southern New Hampshire. 

             Cole's own personal foodie passion lies primarily with breads. "I've been baking breads and making pizza for over 20 years.  I'm a pretty serious, "breadhead" although I really  enjoy cooking in general. It is a greatpleasure to design and make your own delicious breads. It's a lot like the creative work of painting.  I was given a gift to create. I hope others will find great pleasure and joy in the art I make."  - Beaman Cole
