[I keep wanting to call you Lizzie ... when I was little one of my aunts and some cousins nicknamed me 'Lizzie Dripping'. I think it was after a character in a children's book ... a naughty girl, of course!]
I am interested to see that you use acrylics like watercolours for glazing ... it is very effective in the right places, isn't it?
Hi Lesly. I enjoy working in acrylics as they are so immediate. I also work a little in oils but now am finding that I'm always trying to work out how I can get the same effects as acrylics.
From initial interest and employment in the fields of ticket-writing and calligraphy, my mark-making has progressed to richly textured, multi-layered abstract paintings - often including script.
I so love being a painter! My work has been described as that of a Colourist with canvases often reminiscent of quilts or tapestries, with lavish, brilliant colour.
As an artist I value serendipitous learning & working long hours alone.

Ohhh I LOVE this one! The colors and texture in it is WONDERFUL! Just outstanding work! :)
Hello Elis. How is it that images make us gasp?! I'd love you to see the actual piece.
Hi Angela. I was experimenting using acrylics like watercolours in places. (The Mary's Window series sort of painted itself.)
this is just beautiful, Elizabeth.

I answer also to Lizzie!
