I
have a large amount of thrift store vintage dresses
and decided they would make a good subject since
they hold their own as unique handmade objects.
By painting them I am paying tribute to the women
who lovingly spent many hours making them only
to have them end up at a Salvation Army forty
years later for $3. In return I am making something
commemorating their work that, like the dresses
themselves, takes me a great deal of care and
time to create.
Liz received her BFA from Cornish College of Arts
in Seattle. The daughter and former employee of
a boat builder, Liz also paints whimsical boats
and buildings.
