Elizabeth Hutchinson
By LevellingUpNeed some inspiration heading into the weekend? Look no further than the wonderful work of #LUartist ELIZABETH HUTCHINSON!
An oil painter based out of Grande Prairie, AB, Elizabeth pairs the dramatic with the dreamy for a show-stopping effect. Her elegant signature finishes each piece like the cherry on top.
Elizabeth graduated with a BFA but felt challenged by the business side of being an artist. “A bachelor’s degree did not prepare me in any way.”
She moved into education and found a sustainable way to live out her passion for childhood play, nature, AND art. And now the time has come for her own personal creativity to come out and play! Elizabeth especially loves depicting the aspects of nature that are a part of our everyday lives.
“The art world is shifting a lot, so having a group of other artists who are navigating that and grappling with all the same challenges has been huge.”
An artist with a powerful and profound voice, Elizabeth will be one to watch in the years ahead! FOLLOW @elizabeth_hutchinson_art be taken in by her paintings equal parts wistful and magic. Amazing work, Elizabeth!
“Little kids know what treasure is for them; it’s the stones and the feathers and the little driftwood sticks. But as adults we get trained what has value and what doesn’t. To be reminded how you fell in love with it all and bring it back into daily life is a huge first step to inspiring hope and a desire to move forward with positive influence.
As she transitions more and more into life as a working artist, Elizabeth’s LU community with #LUmasters Edward Povey, Charles Miano & Mark Heine has been a huge support for her.
