Zoom Demo: Painting with Dyes on Silk with Elizabeth Mitchell

The Demo

I am a self taught artist, a ‘primitive” in a sophisticated world. My art work is a lyrical, symbolic narrative. Spontaneity, freedom and richness of color are characteristic of my work. They are enhanced by the nature of silk - its luster and receptivity to the dyes - and by the immediacy of the silk painting technique. This evening I will be demonstrating how I paint with dyes on silk.

About the Artist

Born and educated in New Zealand, Elizabeth traveled the world, becoming a US citizen in 1999.  A self taught artist, her art career began with a successful exhibition of silk paintings in New Zealand, a visit to the Altos De Chavon Art Colony in the Dominican Republic, and a life as a self supporting artist. After twenty years, Elizabeth retired from the Art Show Circuit to focus on painting, (silk paintings available at Baisden Gallery Tampa, and Clay Paper Gallery in Dunedin), and teaching her “happy medium” at her studio.
