Bewley studied with William Meritt Chase, Robert Henri and Celia Beaux. He was a member of the Mystic Art Club, Mystic Conn.; Salmagundi Club, New York and Allied Artist of America, Paris.

Bewley exhibited at the Salmagundi Club in 1921 and was awarded a prize. He was awarded a prize at the 1943 Sacramento, California Exhibition. He also exhibited at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Fine Art Academy, and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Bewley finally settled in Paris as a professional portrait and figure painter. He became a regular exhibitor at the Paris Salons and was awarded prizes in 1908, 1909 and 1910.
