Elizabeth trained in Fine Art at the Leicester College of Art and Technology in the 1960's when modern art was all the rage, but being brought up in rural Lincolnshire where she still lives, her artistic interests have always been more with the country pursuits and animals around her, and though she paints all subjects, animals remain her favourite.

She has been a full member of the Society of Equestrian Artists for many years, and has served on the Executive Committee of that society for several of these. She is also a full member of the Society of Women Artists and exhibits regularly in London with both groups, as well as in other mixed exhibitions around the country. Elizabeth works mostly on commission for clients from all over the world; usually in Acrylics and Oils, and occasionally pastels, and she also produces sculptures, and works on Bone China and Porcelain.

Having bred Morgan Horses and hunted for many years with the Belvoir, both these elements feature strongly in her portfolio, which also includes many paintings based on Racing, Eventing, Polo, Showing, Dressage and Driving. She loves to paint all kinds of animals, but apart from horses, dogs are her favourites. Though she is particularly helped in her own life by six dachshunds, she has portrayed many other breeds over the years!!

With commissions being such an important part of her artworks, portraits inevitably form the largest part of her artwork, and over the years she has developed a particular ability to reveal the character of each of her subjects, which makes each animal a true individual - recognised by his owner as such. Elizabeth also produces sculptures - mostly portraits of historical persons and places, and a number of these have featured in city centre developments from Nottingham to Sydney Australia!

She regularly produces presentation paintings and sculptures and also Bone China and Porcelain items for private individuals, companies, sports bodies, and socities.
