Hello

Hi, I'm Liz and I live and work in Marsden, West Yorkshire.  I have worked most of my life in a Secretarial/Administration role and only discovered painting  when I attended an evening art class with my Sisters.  The art class was in a little art studio at the bottom of a beautiful garden.  This was where my passion for art started and I have unleashed my artistic talent ever since.
 

I am married to a lovely man to whom I have two grown up children and three gorgeous grandchildren.  My daughter lives close by and my son unfortunately for me but not for him, lives in Australia.  I have recently retired from a high end Architectural and Interior Design company where I have worked for the last 20 years.  Their beautiful designs and gorgeous interiors have left their mark on me and I now find myself wanting to create WOW factor artwork to enhance the interior of our homes.

I love to walk around our village and on the moorland, looking for inspiration.

We have lots of beautiful areas that inspire me to paint, the reservoirs, the rugged moorland which captures the shapes and lines that I like to add to my paintings and also the different light that bounces off the land and illuminates the view.  Even though you have something sketched or in your mind, once the brush works its magic its nothing like you imagined, that's the beauty of abstract.

​

I have painted in my kitchen for the past few years, making a mess and splattering the furniture but after this week you will find me (thanks to my talented husband) in my newly built garden studio.  I am so excited to start painting there.
