ELIZABETH SULLIVAN

---

I love to paint aliveness – the graceful and powerful motion of running horses, the stealth of a cat, the curious pecking of chickens trying to decide if that speck on the ground is edible.

I often paint in watercolors, because I enjoy the natural flowiness of that medium. Water flows. Watercolors should flow. The paint contributes to the motion in the painting. I also paint on fabric with dyes to get the same kind of motion.

I get inspiration from many things around me, but the styles of art that have most influenced me are primitive cave and rock paintings (not so primitive from my viewpoint) and a style of oriental painting executed quickly, expressing the subject with a few lines. I tried many things to get my paper to look like the walls of a cave, but after I achieved it, I got carried away with color.

At heart I have always been an artist. I have been a professional artist (that is, I live by my brush) for about 20 years. I do many kinds of art, but specialize in watercolors and murals.
