Elizabeth Wolfson

A native of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Elizabeth attended the University of Chicago, the University of Michigan and received her degree in education from Springfield College, Springfield, Mass. She began painting at age 35 but her interest in art began much earlier. She has traveled extensively through Europe and the United States visiting every available museum and site where great artists have painted. However, she is an intuitive painter and has tried to saturate her mind with what she has observed in order to present an image in her own style.

She has studied with many fine artists, such as Will and Dorothy Goldman of Springfield, MA., Jack Flynn, New England watercolorist, William Schultz, oil and pastel, Carlton Plummer and Leonard Goldsmith, Maine watercolorists, Barbara Nechis, watercolorist, William Thomson of Winsted, CT., creativity in any medium, Virginia Cobb of Santa Fe, NM., abstract. ‘I love to paint. I love the process which to me can be a mystery or a puzzle and I enjoy the design or fantasy I can create with color, shape and line. There is always so much more to learn and enjoy in my next attempt. I shall never know enough, but the process will always remain seductive and hopefully enduring.’

She had been a permanent exhibitor at the J. Todd Gallery, Wellesley, MA., and a founder and exhibitor at the former Town Gallery, Longmeadow, MA. Her work has also been used by the Wilkin Art Consulting, Inc. of Weston, MA., and by Design & Advertising Assoc., Springfield, MA. She was a former exhibitor in 1995 at An Elegant Touch, Westerly, RI., Hampshire Frame and Art, Northampton, MA., and Harborlight Furniture Gallery, Gloucester, MA.

She now resides in Boston, MA., and was on a New York internet gallery, paintingsdirect.com for ten years and was a featured artist in the New York Times presenting work for sale on an internet site. For several years she was among the top ten in sales.

Liz has been exhibiting and selling in the Artists Crossing Gallery since May.
