We have lost a great friend, illustrator and beautiful woman who shared her bright spirit and love through her art. She will be greatly missed. Please celebrate her life with us by enjoying the slide show of Liz's work.
Liz’s illustrations are a bold and vivid expression of color, texture and design. In a style she affectionately referred to as “cut-paper-mixed-media,” she combined cut, printed, and handmade papers with hand-carved rubber stamps, colored pencils, pastels, and “whatever else might make a piece more interesting.” The humor and whimsy in her illustrations, along with her bright bold palette, are a beautiful reflection of who Liz was as a person. She leaves behind a joyous body of work for all of us to enjoy.
