Elizabeth Ellison Watercolors

"Elizabeth Ellison begins each painting with a decision about colors and a few simple little lines.

Her spirit seems to blend like a watercolor wash into the world in which she lives.

The resulting vision is such a fusion of the artist's mind with the natural world that it startles."
