Oh to live and breathe the ocean, to dance to its song barefoot on the sand under a star filled sky, to live free and carefree with nature, to embrace all the magic of life with arms outstretched, to live with an open heart full of love…
WELCOME
Liz has lived in magical Manly for over four years, a stone’s throw from the beach. She has had a deep connection with the sea and its inhabitants, and an intense fascination with waves since she was a young child.
She spent much of last year on Belongil Beach, Byron Bay where she was regularly graced by the presence of dolphins and during migrating season, whales and their calves breeching.
Her work is inspired by the magic of the sea. To her, the power and many faces of waves rising and soaring forward to shore is a feast for the imagination, telling myriad stories about nature. Just allow yourself to sit in stillness and watch, lose yourself in them. Liz’s love and fascination of the sea and all that it embraces influences her work.
Through her love of yoga and it’s philosophy, she also paints lotus flowers which are symbolic of the possibility to survive times of adversity, something very close to her heart. The lotus flower begins as a small flower at the bottom of a muddy, murky pond. It slowly grows up towards the water’s surface, continually moving towards the light. Once it comes to the surface of the water, the lotus flower begins to blossom into the beautiful flower that it is.
The lotus flower is a symbol for awakening to the spiritual reality of life.
The sea, yoga and meditation are one for Liz, the food that sustains her soul, her essence. Every day, she sees extraordinary in the ordinary.
