Reynolds Beal is an American Impressionist artist. His wealthy family owned a summer home in Newburg on the Hudson River. It was here that he created many of his landscape paintings. As an independently wealthy artist, Beale could devote his life to his greatest passions of painting and sailing. Much of his artwork involves sailing paintings of the yachts and boats around Rockport Harbor.
Reynolds Beale studied Naval Architecture at Cornell and later at the Arts Student League in New York. While in New York, he trained under two of the most famous American Impressionist artists of the time, Childe Hassam and William Merritt Chase.

Upon their return to the US, they held a joint exhibition of 83 of their oil paintings at the Fitchburg Art Museum (formerly the Fitchburg Art Center) in Massachusetts.
